If the only prayer you say in your entire life is thank you, it will be enough.

Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it.

Seek not, my soul, the life of the immortals; but enjoy to the full resources that are within thy reach.

We can secure other people’s approval, if we do right and try hard; but our own is worth a hundred of it, and no way has been found out of securing that.

Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory.

I would rather be able to appreciate things I can not have than to have things I am not able to appreciate.

There are slavish souls who carry their appreciation of favors done them so far that they strangle themselves with the rope of gratitude.

May your troubles be less and your blessings be more.

Do you feel gloomy? Lift your eyes. Stand on your feet. Say a few words of appreciation and love to the lord. Be positive.

Count your blessings. You are one of a kind. There’s no one in the world like you. You are amazing.

Gratitude is the way to happiness.

Be grateful for your life, every detail of it, and your face will come to shine like a sun, and everyone who sees it will be made glad and peaceful.

I would maintain that thanks are the highest form of thought; and that gratitude is happiness doubled by wonder.

If you have overcome your inclination and not been overcome by it, you have reason to rejoice.

None can believe how powerful prayer is, and what it is able to effect, but those who have learned it by experience.

Whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.

When the world pushes you to your knees, you’re in the perfect position to pray.

If the radiance of a thousand suns were to burst forth at once in the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One.

Appreciation is the highest form of prayer, for it acknowledges the presence of good wherever you shine the light of your thankful thoughts.

I always love to begin a journey on Sundays, because I shall have the prayers of the church to preserve all that travel by land, or by water.

Give us grace and strength to forbear and to persevere. Give us courage and gaiety and the quiet mind, spare to us our friends, soften to us our enemies.

My prayer is that when I die, all hell rejoices that I am out of the fight.
