When you are grateful, that allows God to do great things in your life.
To become a better you, you must be positive towards yourself, develop better relationships, embrace the place where you are.
Seeds of discouragement cannot take root in a grateful heart.
If you want to know where you'll be five years from now, listen to what you're saying about yourself today.
Program your mind with what God says about you and a transformation will take place.
I think that God gives you your own will and choices. I don't believe that we're supposed to drag ourselves through life defeated and not see God's blessings. But you have to make the right choices and follow that still, small voice within you. Because I think that's how God leads us.
