THANKS GIVING AND THANKS LIVING: The Power & Essence Of HIGHER ALTITUDE!

GRATITUDE of hearts is a gracious and graceful ATTITUDE for one’s ALTITUDE in doing life and living in the grace, in Christ Jesus stead. Hence there’s the need to live a GRATEFUL and THANKFUL life in all circumstances.

When you come to a place of ACKNOWLEDGING in life and grace, that is, a place of not only GIVING God THANKS at the point of INCIDENCE, but you have a LIVING ATTITUDE to give THANKS ALWAYS without prejudice, therein is a place of awesome ALTITUDE. That’s an atmosphere, wherein you just LIVE in the REALM of THANKS – such a heartfelt ATTITUDE of the will, it will ALWAYS reciprocate an ALTITUDE beyond human words, but in knowledge and understanding, as the Holy writ do encourage.

“By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God CONTINUALLY, that is, the fruit of our lips GIVING THANKS to his name” Hebrews 13:15.

I therefore ourge you to ensure that your THANKSGIVING act of GRATITUDE becomes a THANKS LIVING ATTITUDE for your ALTITUDE.
