Psalm 50:14–15 NKJV
14 Offer to God thanksgiving, And pay your vows to the Most High. 15 Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you shall glorify Me.”

for many of us gratitude is the beginning of spiritual formation.
often times, we don't realize how selfish we are until we start practicing the gratitude principles.
the gratitude principle is being grateful to God for the things you have right now.
this makes us step back and think about the things we have right now.
even early in sobriety, it’s hard to be grateful for recovery. however, later in recovery you will be grateful that you where gifted sobriety when you where.
thanksgiving or gratitude, is a great way to remember that in control, and that God is good.
The longer we are in sobriety, we get to be grateful that we can be of service to human kind.
Matthew 15:36–37 NKJV
36 And He took the seven loaves and the fish and gave thanks, broke them and gave them to His disciples; and the disciples gave to the multitude. 37 So they all ate and were filled, and they took up seven large baskets full of the fragments that were left.

2) Gratitude expands what we already have.

He gave thanks. Gave thanks....

Then He gave
He took what was given, gave thanks, broke it down, then he gave it again. and then he gave it again. it met the needs of the multitudes. is it possible
