"Do you wish men to speak well of you? Then never speak well of yourself."
"A wise lover regards not so much the gift of Him who loves, as the love of Him who gives. He esteems affection rather than valuables, and sets all gifts below the Beloved. A noble-minded lover rests not in the gift, but in Me (Christ) above every gift." -Thomas a Kempis
"The optimist says, the cup is half full. The pessimist says, the cup is half empty. The child of God says; My cup runneth over." -Anonymous
"God never promises to remove us from our struggles. He does promise, however, to change the way we look at them." -Max Lucado
"We ought to give thanks for all fortune: if it is good, because it is good; if bad, because it works in us patience, humility, contempt of this world and the hope of our eternal country." C. S. Lewis
"Gratitude as a discipline involves a conscious choice. I can choose to be grateful even when my emotions and feelings are still steeped in hurt and resentment. It is amazing how many occasions present themselves in which I can choose gratitude instead of a complaint. I can choose to grateful when I am criticized, even when my heart still responds in bitterness. I can choose to speak about goodness and beauty, even when my inner eye still looks for someone to accuse or something to call ugly." -Henri J. M. Nouwen
"The best things are nearest: breath in your nostrils, light in your eyes, flowers at your feet, duties at your hand, the path of God just before you." -Robert Louis Stevenson
"It is not how much we have, but how much we enjoy, that makes happiness." -Charles Spurgeon
"Perhaps it takes a purer faith to praise God for unrealized blessings than for those we once enjoyed or those we enjoy now." -A. W. Tozer
"Gratitude is our ability to see the grace of God, morning by morning, no matter what else greets us in the course of the day." -Craig Barnes
"No matter what happens each day, at the end of the day I'm one day closer to heaven."
