GRATITUDE: THE HEART'S SONG OF ABUNDANCE

 


HH, Patriarch Godfrey Gregg

Gratitude is more than a fleeting feeling—it is a way of life, a lens through which we see the world not for what it lacks, but for the blessings it holds. In every sunrise, every act of kindness, every breath we take, there is a reason to give thanks. The scriptures remind us that a grateful heart is a magnet for joy, a shield against despair, and a bridge to the divine.

When we cultivate gratitude, we acknowledge that all good things come from a source greater than ourselves. We recognize that even in our struggles, there are lessons to be learned and grace to be found. Gratitude transforms our perspective, turning ordinary moments into sacred gifts and challenges into opportunities for growth.

In a world that often focuses on what we do not have, gratitude calls us to pause and appreciate what we do. It invites us to celebrate the small miracles—the laughter of a child, the warmth of a meal, the comfort of a friend’s embrace. It teaches us to say “thank you” not only with our words, but with our lives, by sharing our blessings with others.

Let us make gratitude our daily practice. Let us begin and end each day with a heart full of thanks, for it is in gratitude that we find true contentment and draw closer to the heart of God.

GEORGIA GUIDESTONES

  Visiting the Georgia Guidestones: A Mysterious Roadside Attraction By  Paul Entin   /  3.9.20 Standing alone in a field in the middle of rural Elbert County, Georgia, the Georgia Guidestones monument features six granite slabs with ten commandments. But not  the  Ten Commandments. So what is written on the Georgia Guidestones and what do they say about our global future? Read on. People wonder if the Georgia Guidestones really exist because the message inscribed on the granite monolith seems too horrific to believe. Conspiracy theorists point to its writings and its mysterious origin story as proof of a globalist plot to reduce the world population, eliminate national sovereignty, and replace individual rights with a communist dictatorship, among other plans. The Guidestones consist of four, tall, stone slabs. These slabs surround a central slab and a final slab sits on top of them all as a capstone. Slits in the center slab and capstone direct the sunlig...

THE ETERNAL WALK

  HH, Patriarch Godfrey Gregg The journey of faith is not limited to the span of our earthly years—it is a walk that stretches into eternity. For those who belong to the Lord, life is more than a fleeting moment; it is the beginning of an everlasting union with God. Our walk with Him is both present and eternal. From the beginning, God has desired fellowship with man.  “Enoch walked faithfully with God; then he was no more, because God took him away”  (Genesis 5:24). Enoch’s life reminds us that walking with God is not bound by earthly limitations but leads to eternal fellowship with Him. Jesus confirms this promise of eternal companionship, declaring:  “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die”  (John 11:25–26). Our walk continues beyond death, for in Christ we have eternal life. Paul describes this journey beautifully:  “For we walk by faith, not by ...

US GREAT MYSTERIES

      One of the US' greatest mysteries     Atop a desolate hill in a small US town are the Georgia Guidestones: an eerie 19ft tall granite monument with a post-apocalyptic message for the world.   By Shannon Dell 3 September 2015 The drone of the man’s oak didgeridoo reverberated off the granite. “Not that I know when Doomsday is,” he said, parting his lips from the mouthpiece and pointing toward the 19ft tall thick, grey stones a few yards from us. “But whenever it hits, this is right where I’d want to be.” I met Anthony, a hitchhiker from North Carolina, at the site of the  Georgia Guidestones , a mysterious six-piece granite monument atop a desolate hill in the small town of Elberton, Georgia. He had stopped at the site on his way to see the  Coral Castle  – another mysterious stone structure – in Homestead, Florida. I had stopped because I’m a sucker for roadside oddities. “It's no wonder this was chosen as the site for the guidestones. ...
