"True gratitude is the ability to humbly see, feel, and even receive love. Gratitude is a form of

returning love to God. Recognize His hand, tell Him so, express your love to Him. As you come to truly know the Lord, you will find an intimate, sacred relationship built on trust. You will come to know

He understands your anguish and will, in compassion, always respond to you in love.”
