THE POWER OF THANK YOU

Discover the Joy of Gratitude Written by: Joyce Meyer Published by: Hodder & Stoughton Price: £9.99

Everyone appreciates the value of a simple ‘thank you’ – and understands its value.

In this book, Meyer encourages readers to reflect and consider the importance of thankfulness – and gratitude.

She describes how lives can be transformed by living with gratitude to God for his gifts and explains how regularly giving thanks to Him can offer a new perspective – and improve mood and attitude.

Drawing on real life examples, she demonstrates how adopting a gratitude mindset or ‘a lifestyle of thanksgiving’ regardless of the challenges which touch all lives, and living a life rooted in thanks depends om faith and understanding of God at work in our lives – even when dealing with thankless tasks or rooted in the depths of despair.

The author draws on biblical examples of those facing challenge and despair and shows how their lives were transformed by faith in God.

She also draws on scripture to offer encouragement of gratitude and to show its power in leading to contentment as understanding of God at work in lives is increased.
