Meditate with gratitude

A blog from Jane Watch, "The Power of Intentional Thanksgiving". Here's a couple excerpts:

Over the past decade there has been an increasing awareness, even in secular psychology, of how thankfulness creates a realm of blessing and contentment in one’s life... Being thankful opens the latch of the gate to all that God is...

As we celebrate and thank God for the seed of His provision, the seed begins to grow into the fullness of all we need. We often see this in healing. As we pray for healing, sometimes we might only see a 5% improvement. As we thank God and celebrate His goodness for the 5%, we can see the 5% increase to 10% and keep growing into full healing as it is watered with praise, thankfulness and expectation of God’s goodness...

At the end of each day, give thanks to God for all the things received that day. Thank Him for all the things they gave and sowed into others that day. Thank Him for the harvest to come to them from that giving... Every day, enter God’s gates with thanksgiving, enter His courts with praise. Come boldly before His throne of grace and enjoy His presence, dance in His glory, and let the portal of His glory release His kingdom to come, His will to be done in your life as it is in heaven.
