Beatitude means - - - good attitude. Why is it we mess up so badly when it comes to responding respectfully toward others especially when we disagree with one another? We should be great at being cautious when we speak. That would greatly help us to have healthier dialogue and happier relationships. This Thanksgiving Eve, My prayer is for all of us to work harder on the things we fail in, and have greatly failed others in. And combine those failures and deal with them head on!
Take a real hard look at yourself and ask God to help you recognize your handicap and accept the challenge by seriously working on the removal of setbacks that no longer fit into the life you want.
May we see ourselves for who and what we really are, and take to heart the need to fix what is broken deep within... Maybe, if we make this connection in mind and in heart, and earnestly work everyday towards improving our negative tendencies, there is great hope that every obstacle can and will be changed into a life worth living, because we live in you Lord. And only you can transform us and improve us as long as we acknowledge every bit of growth --- is of you! And for that grace, that gift, I thank thee and I devote my entire life to thee in great Thanksgiving!
