Growing Grateful: Live Happy, Peaceful, and Contented (a 101-Day Devotional), (Hardcover)

Transform your life when you discover the key to true and lasting happiness...embracing a life a gratitude.

Growing Grateful helps you grab hold of a happy and peaceful life with 101 devotional meditations on the joy of being grateful even in the hardest times.

Life does not always go how we dreamed it would. People disappoint us or betray us, jobs that we counted on disappear, financial troubles happen, health issues blindside us. It is so easy to fixate on what we don't have, what went wrong, and how life is unfair. We begin to let anger, bitterness, regret, or frustration rule our lives. But there is another way to live that frees us to embrace the blessings in our lives and find true and lasting joy--gratitude.

In Growing Grateful, author Mary A. Kassian guides you through 101 daily devotions on how the habit of gratitude will foster happiness in your life no matter what the day holds--the kind of happy that blooms in every season along the pathway of life's ups and downs. Each daily entry in this beautiful and inspiring book gives you a meaningful Bible verse, a short entry that helps you reflect on your own attitude of gratitude, and a meditation with reflection questions to consider or to write about in your journal.

In Growing Grateful you will learn how to:

• Get back to the basics of gratitude
• Be grateful for God's friendship
• Cultivate a closer relationship with God
• Be thankful despite your circumstances
• Be grateful that God delights in you
• Pursue a joyful life

This devotional makes a lovely gift for Mother's Day, birthdays, or any time you want to gift a friend with something special. Or perhaps you're giving yourself the gift of gratitude!

The secret to peace and contentment can be found in developing a habit of gratitude. Thankfulness changes our perspective and reprograms our mood, fostering a rich happiness. Growing Grateful will help you discover that, in good times and bad, being a grateful person can lead you to a life of lasting satisfaction.
