Gratitude and the seeds of kindness

How do you express your gratitude?

I express my gratitude in various ways, but it’s often depending on cultural norms, personal preferences, and the context of the situation.

Typically I simply say thank you when expressing my gratitude. There are many times when I say thank you when people don’t deserve it. I believe that thanking people when they don’t deserve, it will plant a seed of kindness in their hearts. People need to see the kindness of Jesus Christ expressed through our lives.


Luke, 6:35 – But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil.

proverbs 11:17 – The merciful man doeth good to his own soul: but he that is cruel troubleth his own flesh.
