Hi Friend,
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
I wanted to share some great one-liners from the saints about gratitude. Spend some time chewing on these today. It’ll lift your soul. And if you live them, it’ll change your life. (The first four are from an American, Blessed Solanus Casey.)
“It’s heaven begun for the grateful on earth.”
— Blessed Solanus Casey
“Thank God ahead of time.”
— Blessed Solanus Casey
“Be sure, if the enemy of our souls is pleased at anything in us it is ingratitude—of whatever kind. Why? Ingratitude leads to so many breaks with God and neighbor.”
— Blessed Solanus Casey
“Gratitude is as necessary for social order and harmony as are the laws of gravity for the physical world.”
— Blessed Solanus Casey
“Thank him for everything, because everything is good.”
— St. Josemaría Escrivá
“Happiness can only be achieved by looking inward and learning to enjoy whatever life has, and this requires transforming greed into gratitude.”
— St. John Chrysostom
“The secret of happiness is to live moment by moment and to thank God for what He is sending us every day in His goodness.”
— St. Gianna Beretta Molla
“Gratitude is the memory of the heart.”
St. Mary Euphrasia Pelletier
“No duty is more urgent than that of returning thanks.”
— St. Ambrose
“Think of all the beauty in yourself and in everything around you and be happy.”
— Anne Frank (I know. Not a Saint. But a hero nonetheless!)
“What most attracts God’s graces is gratitude, because if we thank him for a gift, he is touched and hastens to give us ten more, and if we thank him again with the same enthusiasm, what an incalculable multiplication of graces! I have experienced this; try it yourself and you will see! My gratitude for everything he gives me is limitless, and I prove it to him in a thousand ways.”
— St. Thérèse of Lisieux
If you’re reading this, I’m grateful for YOU, and to know that I’m spiritually walking through life with you. My family and I are praying for you today.
HAVE A GRATEFUL DAY!
God bless you,
