Br. Jacob Gerber, O.P., on Remembering and Thanksgiving

"'Remember the marvels he has done' (Ps 105:5). Remember. Last year, when I was a novice, the novice master had us do an exercise he called 'singular moments of grace.' The point of the exercise was to compose a list of moments in your life in which God was at work. It was a beautiful way of recalling the marvels God has worked in my life. What quickly became evident was how God's grace is active in all moments of life, from the most pivotal, life-changing, to the more mundane, everyday experiences. Thanksgiving fills the soul as it remembers the marvels God has done for it. That soul cannot but run to the tabernacle to pour out its gratitude to God for all his incredible blessings."

In a recent commentary, Brother Jacob Gerber, O.P., reflected on the importance of having a grateful heart.
