1 Cultivating a Culture of Thankfulness in Adults

Today Topic is cultivating a culture of thankfulness within adults. Story: How traveling the world and then having a child with special needs helped us have thankful hearts. Problem: When going through hard times, it is so easy to lose perspective on the bigger things in life. This creates huge amounts of stress because you feel trapped and have no room to maneuver.Solution: Thankfulness allows us to zoom out and gain a better perspective. Getting a global and historical perspective can shift you to thankfulness. Examples: Jesus Christ paid a high price that I can have citizenship in His Kingdom. Soldiers and soldier's families have paid a huge price for me to have these rights as a citizen. We need to expose ourselves to the sufferings so that we can develop a culture of thankfulness.
