At times when endless problems storm into our lives, we easily forget all the other pleasant things in our lives.

You often hear people exclaiming; " Nothing is moving in my life!", but how true is that statement. No matter how dark things may appear right now, if you sit down and look closely at your life, you will realise that there are enough blessings to be thankful about. Just because you did not get that promotion that you were fighting hard for, it doesn't mean that nothing is moving in your life. Look around and you will realise that your problem child is slowly reforming into the desired child that you have always prayed for. Just because you can't have children it doesn't mean that you are doomed. Look around and you will thank God for that faithful and supportive spouse.

The worst state we can ever fall into as a people is the state of ingratitude. An unthankful heart eats away at it's owner. If you allow your eyes to become blind to the obvious blessings that you have in your life, you will fall away into the dark pit of resentment.

"Although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were
thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were
darkened." (Romans 1:21)

Open your eyes to the countless blessings that you have in your life. You are alive, thats a great gift on its own! You can read, you are in good health, you have a roof over your head, you have at least a meal per day. You are blessed in so many ways! Hold on to your blessings and do your best to bless others.

Let's see that smile back on your face again! For indeed there is enough to be thankful for!
