We take so much for granted. We fail to recognize that every moment, every breath, every heartbeat of our life is an undeserved, free gift from God, what is called "grace." "In [God] we live and move and have our being" (Acts 17:28). In every moment we are given the opportunity to desire and to open our heart and mind anew to the indwelling Presence and love of God.
Do you express your gratitude to God for each moment, each breath, each heartbeat of your life? How can you begin to thank God? By desiring and surrendering to do God's will, cooperating with God, and allowing God's indwelling Presence and love to be lived and manifested in and through you to the world.
