Eucharisteo

Eucharisteo.... to be grateful, feel thankful, give thanks (Strongs 2168)


Learning joy, learning to live a life of thankfulness. Finding joy in everyday blessings, in the everyday graces of the Lord. Discontentment, self-condemnation, a critical eye, they are all poisons to the soul, destroyers of joy. Open, complete, pure, and fervent thankfulness and thanksgiving will always lead to and foster pure joy. We must learn thankfulness. Not just the occasional action, but we must allow it to permeate our lives, our souls, our character, until the outpouring of thankfulness comes as natural at any given moment in life. Contentment, true contentment, is found in thanksgiving.
