02. Gratitude: How to Muster Up an Attitude of Gratitude When You Just Don‘t Feel Like It

Ways to build and strengthen your faith and gratitude: * Reflect on what God has already done in your life * Choose to seek Him in the world around you, choose to see and feel His Creation * Fellowship with others whose belief you can borrow and will pull you out of isolation * Study The Bible * Develop a discipline with daily devotions * Be in constant contact with God Scriptures to help muster up an attitude of gratitude: "I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!" Mark 9:24 "I will offer you a SACRIFICE of THANKSGIVING and call on the name of the LORD." Psalm 116:17 "Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a SACRIFICE of PRAISE - the fruit of lips that openly profess his name." Hebrews 13:15 "I remain confident of this: I will see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living." Psalm 27:13

01. Grace Given Grace Received

Grace is a unmerited favor abundantly given as a gift from God.  In this episode we process through the following scriptures: "For you are saved by grace through faith, and this is not from yourselves; it is God's gift - not from works, so that no one can boast." Ephesians 2:8-9 "And from the overflow of his fullness we received grace heaped upon more grace!" John 1:16 "And he gives grace generously. As the scriptures says, "God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble." James 4:6 "But he answered me, "My grace is always more than enough for you, and my power finds its full expression through your weakness."  So I will celebrate my weaknesses for when I'm weak I sense more deeply the mighty power of Christ living in me."                  2 Corinthians 12:9 "...urged them to rely on the grace of God." Acts 13:43 "Grace and peace be yours in abundance through the knowledge of Jesus our Lord."       2 Peter 1:2 Thank you for taking the time to listen and for giving me GRACE to do the dang thing and learn as I go.  Hopefully we will all grow together In A Space For Grace.
