The more you thank God for little things, the fewer things feel little.

GRATITUDE

WHAT THIS MEANS

Gratitude changes the size of things by changing what you are looking at. A hot shower, a lift home, somebody saving you a seat, these stay invisible until you name them, and then turn out to be most of the day. The word little was never a measurement, it was a description of how much attention you were paying.

Name three specific things to God tonight, and keep them small enough to feel silly. Do it again tomorrow with three different ones. Within a week you will catch yourself noticing them while they are still happening.

A QUESTION TO SIT WITH
