Gratitude is the worldÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s healthiest human emotion. It actually increases your immunity to sickness.Plus, ungrateful people tend to be unhappy people. Nothing ever satisfies them. They never have enough. They are Ã¢â‚¬Å“when-and-thenÃ¢â‚¬Â people who think, Ã¢â‚¬Å“When such and such happens, then IÃ¢â‚¬â„¢ll be happy.Ã¢â‚¬ÂBut the Bible gives us another way. First Thessalonians 5:18 says,Ã‚Â Ã¢â‚¬Å“Whatever happens, give thanks, because it is GodÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s will in Christ Jesus that you do thisÃ¢â‚¬ÂÃ‚Â (GWT).Gratitude can change everything. For example, try this: If youÃ¢â‚¬â„¢re feeling depressed, make a list of 50 things you can be grateful for. Your gratefulness will help shift your focus away from your problems and toward everything good God has done and is doing in your life.We take much for granted. Develop the attitude of gratitude and watch your stress level go downÃ¢â‚¬â€because there is always something to be grateful for.
