It all started when I read One Thousand Gifts by Ann Voskamp. In it she talked about the freedom found in acknowledging thankfulness. In fact, she quotes scientific proof that gratitude can alleviate stress and provide an optimistic outlook on life.
As I wrote, I discovered that the scientific proof is actually true. On the worst days, I had the opportunity to look beyond myself & reflect on the (often minute) gifts in my life. As a result, an attitude of gratitude and optimism has started developing in my heart and I am gaining a new vision for the life the Lord has given me.
I highly encourage you to visit aholyexperience.com and read Ann's blog. It never ceases to profoundly impact my heart & life.
