Spiritual Gratitude

Spiritual gratitude is rare. It comes only when we are conscious and give an opening and recognition of the Divine action in our lives based on purity and sincerity. Normally we respond to good news from the ego by excitement, doubt, fear, pride, satisfaction, self-importance, ambition, greed and other ways that close. No such thing as chance. What we call luck is spiritual Grace acting for reasons of which we are unconscious. Grace comes in response to faith, aspiration, opening, sincerity. Cheerfulness in all circumstances is an expression of gratitude.
