Take some time right now to write a thank you note or two.  If you’re going through a difficult time, write one to God.  Pray and meditate on what God is showing you through this trial and then out of that overflow, express your thanks to Him with a card or a memo.  Maybe even leave your thanks on this site to encourage others.

Maybe right now there is another person you need to thank as you live out a life of gratitude.  I wrote a thank you note to a police officer who gave me a ticket.  I wanted him to know that although getting a ticket wasn’t fun, I was thankful for his work in our city and community.  Especially in light of recent events involving the death of police officers in Tacoma, I let him know I was praying for the men and women on our local police force.  Gratitude in ALL circumstances.  Who do you need to thank?
