As Americans, we have the liberty to choose either grumbling or gratitude.  The earlier focuses on us, our circumstances and all things that can go wrong, temperatures up or down, even rain or snow that is more than we might be able to “appreciate, things just not going our way, or the way we would do it.  Fire and storm are no different, if we are so inclined.  Grumble.

However, gratitude takes us to another plain, one beyond the world that seems to spin and surrounds us, to one where we are a part or particle, a dot; and yet significant, being able to grant our gratitude, and participate with the One who came to grant us the very eternal freedom of life beyond ourselves.
“I will praise you, LORD, with all my heart; I will tell of all the marvelous things You have done. I will be filled with joy because of You. I will sing praises to Your name, O Most High.”
“Be thankful in all circumstances,” to God Himself through Messiah His Son, trusting Him for your every moment, “for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus.” Grow in His Grace.
