Feeling gratitude to God, but yet not expressing it back to Him, is somewhat like wrapping a present but not giving it to that special person. The gratitude is there… somewhere… but our world may be so chaotic at the time, we can’t seem to put forth the words. So think of it this way…this gift of gratitude is really all you can give back God. So in the presence of glum grayness, show gratefulness…in the face of pain, praise Him…in the center of trauma, express thanksgiving…and when you are beset by anguish, show your appreciation to the God Who loves you more than you’ll ever understand. And when you share this gift of gratitude with others – when you recollect God’s goodness, faithfulness, and mercy – they too will be filled with gratitude.
