 Our 40 Decisions (O40Ds) series continues forward with this 6th consideration - which is:


If you take your left hand's index and middle finger, and hold them up under your chin – you can feel your pulse. That means you're relatively healthy and most likely you are going to get through another day on this earth. Now, pause and think about the aspect of . . . do you appreciate the life you are living (the how things are going, who is in your life, etc.)?


 Now, I hope you are like me and yes, you do appreciate all that you have, all that has happened and you hope it all will continue for a good many years yet ahead.


Which then leads to this.

Do your words and actions show that you appreciate your life? Are there the words of thanks to those who have helped you? Are there the prayers of thanks to God for his blessings? Are there the words, the actions, the whatever . . . that your family and friends can hear and see?


For if there are the examples (the proof), then you have made the decision to be one who is appreciative (good job!).

But, what if the proof is not really there or just an occasional thank you now and then? Well, some is better then none, but wouldn't more be better yet? If you think so, then all you have to do is to decide to be one that is appreciative. How you may be wondering? Well, the words in these images are some good ways to start. And if you think about it, you'll find more ways as your days ahead unfold.


So please . . .  join me in being one who thanks the waiter or waitress who is taking your order and bringing your food, let those help you on a project or an effort of some type, know that you appreciate their help, and when your kids or grandkids do something nice, tell them that you appreciate it. Why? Because appreciation is a free fuel. It not only brings a smile to those on the receiving end, but it also leads to more and more appreciation (it easily becomes a good habit).

And don't forget, you're a role-model (others are watching you).


"Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus."

1 Thessalonians 5:18
