Emily Jaminet on Growing in Gratitude

"If you are like me, it is easy to forget how 'God provides' if you are too focused on others' blessings. We live in a culture that incessantly prompts us to want more and more of what others have - and INSTANTLY!

"Temptations are thrown in our path relentlessly and we are provided many opportunities to lose perspective on our blessings, to want more, and to forget that what the Lord has given us is more than adequate. As a Christian, living a life rooted in gratitude is essential to growing in our faith."

In a recent commentary, writer Emily Jaminet reflected on ways in which we can grow in gratitude, including surrounding ourselves with people who are grateful for life and focusing on the non-material world.
