Be Thankful For What You Have

ONE Saturday afternoon while I was surfing the internet, I was able to see a quote that struck me. The quotation goes like this, “Be thankful for what you have. You have no idea how many people would love to have what you have got”.

        The line is accurate for me. Instead of consistently complaining about what we do not have, it is right and proper that we thank God Almighty for what we have. We must be thankful for what we have, even if what we have are just small and simple. We must be content with what we have. Contentment matters a lot. It is the state of being contented with what you have. It is the state of being happy and satisfied with what you have.

        Always be thankful for what you have for it can make you feel good. It can also improve your health and well-being and can give you a clear and positive mind. It can also give you more self-esteem, meaning you will become more confident and will become less stressed and worried. Being thankful, can also improve your relationships with others and most especially, with God Almighty.

        On the other hand, if you are discontented with what you have and unthankful for what you have, it can give you some negative results. It can make you stressed and can make you worried a lot. You will become stressed and worried because you will do everything, whether it is good or the other way around, just for you to have what you do not have or what others have. As a result, you will have an unclear mindset that will result to attract negativity and you will lead to low self-esteem. In other words, it can give you negativities to your health and well-being.

        So, it is good to be contented and thankful to God for what you have. Do not worry, your time will come. In the future, you will have what others have. Time will come that you will be enjoying what others are enjoying right now. Trust God because He has plans for you too. Trust the process that God is doing for you. In other words, wait for your time. Be patient in waiting for your time. You should always remember that patience is a virtue.

        If you know how to wait for your time to have what you are wishing for, God will bless you with something greater in the end. It is because God sees you that you are happy with what you have and you are patiently waiting for your perfect time. Also, remember that you should also do your part while waiting for your time. You must do what is right for you to have what you wish for and not for the sake of it. If you do good for your wish and do everything with God, your perfect time will be the most genuine and sweetest happiness you could ever feel.

        Again, we must be thankful for what we have even if what we have are only small and simple compared to what others have. That is a good act, and always remember God will reward those who are contented and thankful for what they have. Being thankful for what you have will make you happy and will make you feel positive about your life. So, be happy, be contented, be thankful, and for sure time will come that you will be receiving from God what you wanted to have.

        Being thankful for what you have means you are happy and content with what you have in your life. We should always express our gratitude to God for what He gives to us and should not question Him why we do not have what others are having right now. Again, we should trust the process and His plans for us. Maybe God is not giving you this time what you wish for because of some reason. Maybe it is not yet your time now. Everything happens for a reason. We should trust God for that. For now, we must be thankful for what we presently have. Be happy, be contented, and be thankful all the time.
