"Therefore will I give thanks unto thee, O Lord, among the heathen, and sing praises unto thy name." (Psalms 18:49 KJV)
Gratitude will define you. The definition of who you are and how you live is marked by your gratitude. When you learn how to appreciate the little things in life you develop a super spirit of gratitude.
Often it's the simple things that we fail to appreciate. The use of our fingers or toes, our speech, even our thought patterns are things we ought to be grateful for. Some many times we take these things for granted and do not show gratitude to God for His blessings upon us. So when you are thankful for the small things, the insignificant things, and the things that we take for granted, bigger blessings unfold in your life and you can learn how to praise the Lord and give thanks for His touch everyday and everywhere.
The Psalmist said even among the heathen would he give thanks. The world needs to see someone who is thankful for blessings everyday. They need to hear the testimony of your gratitude toward the Maker of all things. Not only do you become an overcomer by the words of your testimony, you become a blessing to those that are unlearned and untaught in the scripture. Your gratitude makes a difference in the lives of people in every walk of life.
So remember your gratitude WILL define you. It will leave a mark on your history and on your world. So the next time you feel like singing praise to God do it-somebody's listening and watching. Your thankfulness to God just might turn the tide in their life.
