Gratitude is power. As I sit reflecting on today, I realize that gratitude is power. Gratitude shapes the direction of my thoughts and has a cascade effect. Flowing out of my heart are rivers of living water. Grateful for the beauty of the day. Grateful for the birds chirping. Grateful for the sun shining. Grateful for the small things. God is often found in the small things, guiding us, teaching us, defining and refining us. We would only stop and take the time to focus on the good the positive and not the negative. Choosing joy despite your circumstances. Choosing to see the good in everyone you meet. Choosing to speak words that build up and not tear down. Gratitude is power. Gratitude leads to praise and praise is a weapon. powerful spiritual transaction happens when we choose to speak life and not death. When we praise in the valley and praise in the mountain. Praise says, God, I trust you. Like the strawberry bush, Father has us protected by the covering of his Son, Lord Jesus' blood shed on Calvary The blood like strawberry leaves hides us until we are mature enough to step out and step into all God has called us to be. Hidden like the strawberry under the leaves. You may be in a hiding place right now for a season, waiting to ripen so your fruit will be abundant and delicious. Just the right amount of sun, water, and positive words spoken cultivate a bond with the Creator. Creator and creation meet, producing a beautiful flower of possibility to bring about great transformation to the partaker of its fruit. Are you bearing good fruit? Are you in need of pruning? Is it harvest season? Get alone with God. Ask Him and wait for His answer. It may surprise you.
