Gratitude is Attitude

It has been an amazing year so far.
I know alot of people will disagree with that because this year happened to be the worse year for so many people,so they think.

Many of us lost our loved ones,depression set in, schools had been closed for months now,the economy had been really bad and that didn't stop things from getting pretty expensive and on and on the list will continue, therefore with those list above,it is a proof to support so many people's motion that says "this year is actually the worse year in the history of their lives"...

    You can never know how much gratitude you should offer to God if you keep complaining about those bad things that happened to you this year and complaining will cause you to forget all of God's benefit towards you, His benevolence are actually more than the bad incidents that you have been complaining about.


  So many times, especially towards the end of the year,we tend to talk more about giving thanks to God and also appreciating people but beyond words,your attitude shows the true state of your heart.

Your gratitude is measured in your attitude,it is not about what you do but how you do it.

If we think that all we went through and all we are still going through is bad,we should not forget that,it could have been worse but for God

I know that we might not have achieved the long list of goals we had for this year but God's time is the best and He makes all things beautiful then.

It is not about what you faced or what you are still facing but about what you are focusing on.

When bad thing is happening to us,we must also know that good things are happening to us at the same time but we may not see the good things because we are too focused on the bad stuff that are happening to us at that point in time..

I had lost quite a number of things this year but the amazing thing is that,I don't replace them with the exact thing I lost but with the better or bigger version of the Lost items.
That's the way God works,He actually allow things to happen us to make us better version of who we are and also provide us with better things.

   Look at Job,He was blessed beyond all that he had lost and the interesting thing about being blessed that way is,you will forget all the pains you had been through,no wonder Job wrote His pains on a stone even while he was still suffering,so  that he won't forget when all the pains are over because he knew that as long as his Redeemer liveth,there is hope for him and trust the Lord,He didn't fail Job,He came through for Job right on time, yes right on time.
    
   I want us to also know that anytime the Lord turns our situation around is actually the right time because He does things at the right time


When something looks really small or bad,giving thanks is what we should do.

Oh give thanks to the Lord for His mercy endures forever, for it is by His mercy that we are not consumed.

With all that happened this year,is it not a big miracle that we are still alive today.
Do you even realize that some of your mates are in their graves right this moment but you are holding your phone right now reading this.

Even with the bad economy,God kept providing our daily bread. 
During those long period of lockdown,we were still feeding fine,I know some of us are still shocked about how we were able to feed then because things were obviously hard but God kept providing for us..

There are so many things to be grateful for

Those plans you could not achieve this year,guess what?
You can add them to your plans next year and the reason you can do that is because you are alive and healthy,so go ahead,add them to your next year plans.
That is why there is abundant of hope for the living..

Give thanks
Celebrate Jesus,for it couldn't have been better than this,I tell you the truth my dear family.

This is the last blog for the year and we are sincerely grateful that you are part of this family🤗🤗

Happy New Year in advance
Stay tuned!
