The True Spirit of Gratitude
Gratitude may be one of the simplest spiritual practices we
can employ. We are often advised to keep a gratitude journal
or make a short gratitude list at bedtime. We are taught that
gratitude opens the way for more good. All good advice.
But gratitude can be a deeper, richer spiritual experience
than simply counting our blessings. Gratitude is possible in
any circumstance. It can serve as a doorway to Spirit, even
when we are sick, afraid or grieving. It elevates our
consciousness and puts us in the flow of positive energy that
is divine life.
In this booklet, Unity ministers and other New Thought
writers share their experiences with gratitude, even in the
midst of adversity. They also use gratitude to celebrate the
joys of the human experience and to propel them on their
spiritual path.
