What kind of thoughts come to your mind when you visualize a man without legs? A feeling of true gratitude. You feel blessed by God. It is not necessary that you have to feel gratitude only in such instances .You can feel gratitude for the small mercies of life.
It used to be a practice in most of the households to thank God before supper. I don’t know if the practice is still prevalent today, but it is a powerful thought. Small gestures of gratitude accumulates to form a tremendous force. Together, they have the potential to transform your world.
Gratitude is something one feels for what happens to them. You may get promoted and feel gratitude. But what is truly powerful is thanking in advance for events which are likely to occur in future. By this we send a powerful signal to the universe that we completely believe in what is going to happen in the future. Actually we give thanks as if it has already occurred. This reinforces our belief and the universe responds in a more powerful way.
Thanking in advance is therefore a fine way to let the universe know that you are experiencing the material events before its occurrence. You are in fact forcing nature to create the events and hastening the process. Gratitude likewise is the ultimate feeling which propels the universe to give shape to your thoughts. With a gesture of gratitude you are ensuring safe passage through the process of transformation. You need not search for reasons to feel grateful. Everyday, you can show your gratitude, by simply thanking God or nature during each meal time and while going to bed.
Feel grateful for everything you have and will have in future.
