World Gratitude Day
A strange concept,
being thankful around the globe
just one day a year
out of 365 days!
In the past,
I have written in my journal
five things for which
I am appreciative on a daily basis.
However, I do see
the virtue of
proclaiming a World Gratitude Day…
clarifying to everyone,
that no matter our economic status,
where we live,
in what kind of abode in which we dwell,
our outer shell's appearance,
what religious faith we practice,
each of us
has reasons to be grateful.
In addition, I include a quote here
from my daily devotional,
the Magnificat:
“We who take access to words for granted
should pause to be grateful to those
who preserved the Gospel words
so carefully
and spread them to the utmost bounds of the world
without benefit of the printing press
or instantaneous media.”
~Magnificat: Saturday morning, September 21~
We have so much to feel grateful for!

ReplyDeleteamen, and a prayer that it continues!
DeleteLove your journal idea. I should do that as lately I tend to forget some of the things that I take for granted. That idea goes well with a daily devotional. Thanks for sharing..
