Appreciate Everything

Greetings to all! As we step into this 'Grateful' Thursday, let us take a moment to appreciate everything that comes our way.

Serve God deeply and avoid disappointment. It is best for us to have no expectations and to appreciate everything. While life brings blessings, God may allow challenges to teach or test us. Let us serve God with all our hearts, knowing that a grateful attitude helps us appreciate and see the beauty in every positive or negative experience.

Job 1:12 (RSV)

12 And the LORD said to Satan, "Behold, all that he has is in your power; only upon himself do not put forth your hand." So Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD.

Lesson: An effective way to navigate life's ups and downs is to release expectations and appreciate every moment. We will experience both gains and losses.
