To complain is to call pain; those
who murmur never see more; and it is only great fools that are never grateful
SCRIPTURE: O give thanks unto the
LORD; for he is good; for his mercy endureth forever. 1 Chronicles 16:34
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: To complain is
to call pain; those who murmur never see more; and it is only great fools that
are never grateful
Gratitude is the quality of being thankful. It is the readiness to show
appreciation in return for kindness received. Greatness on the other hand is
the quality of being great, eminent or prominent in size, quality or
achievement. Greatness implies importance and fame, power or success.
There is an undeniable connection between gratitude and greatness.
Gratitude is a provoker of greatness. Anywhere you see gratitude, greatness
will manifest automatically. On the other hand, ingratitude is a diminishing factor
and an eternal enemy of greatness. That is why it is only great fools that are
never grateful.
The truth is, those who murmur never see more and to complain is to call
pain. Gratitude is the character of the great. It is not possible for someone
to be genuinely grateful to God and end small in life.
Gratitude focuses on who God is and what He means to us. If we wait for
what God will do before we can be grateful to Him, we wait too long.
Gratitude and grumbling are
diametrically opposed; the choice for gratitude is the choice against
grumbling. Gratitude is the high way to
great altitude in life. It is not possible to be grateful and be grounded in
life. The garment of praise is a cure for littleness in life.
I prophesy on you the baptism of the spirit of gratitude in Jesus’ Name.
REMEMBER THIS: To complain is to call pain; those who murmur never see
more; and it is only great-fools that are never grateful
