Gratitude for our blessings so that we become blessing to others

It is about getting better...

I watched a TV program that was about an Evangelist,  who was expounding gratitude for our blessings.  

He mentioned about 10 sick persons who were treated by the Lord, and out of the 10 and only one thanked the Lord.

Hence he mentioned that we should be grateful for the blessings we have received:

     1.     The life that we are enjoying
     2.    The 11000 liters of free air we breathe
     3.    The good and bad things we encounter in our life
     4.    The past present and futre
     5.    "Lord I offer my life to you"   - the joys the aches and the pain

In the last supper hours before the Lord was to be crucified He thanked despite the fact that He was in the room of disciples who would abandon Him later;  the room included Judas who betrayed Him.  Yet he offered thanks.

Do we thank the  Lord in the midst of adversity?   Are we grateful for the life we had no matter how challenging?

We can only have happiness and progress in life if we are grateful... Gratitude will see us through.

If we are grateful for our blessing, then we can move on to be a blessing a gift to others.
