Quotes On Gratitude

"As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them."
--John Fitzgerald Kennedy (35th U.S. President)

"Gratitude is when memory is stored in the heart and not in the mind."
--Lionel Hampton
"Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow."
--Melanie Beattie
"To speak gratitude is courteous and pleasant, to enact gratitude is generous and noble, but to live gratitude is to touch Heaven."
--Johannes Gaertner
"Thankfulness is the beginning of gratitude.
Gratitude is the completion of thankfulness.
Thankfulness may consist merely of words.
Gratitude is shown in acts."
--David O. McKay
"Rejoice always! Pray constantly. Give thanks in everything, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus."
--The Apostle Paul (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18)
"Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good."
--Psalm 136:1
May all of us have hearts of thanksgiving and allow this to affect every step of our walk with Christ.

Have a great day!

Good stuff. I know saying ten gratitudes a day keeps the blues at bay.
