A wave of discouragement rushed over me, as I walked out of the doctor\u2019s office. News of another health issue left me down and discouraged. I felt tired of following the breadcrumb trail. I wanted to be done with diagnoses, recommendations, feeling fatigued and in pain. The sadness lingered as I pulled myself out of bed the next morning. It was business as usual for this mom. The children needed me, whether I felt good or not.<\/p>\n

As I pulled out of the driveway, I automatically transitioned into the ritual I\u00a0practice on the way to school: praying in the van with my children.<\/p>\n

It is a simple format: I begin, they follow with their special intentions, and we conclude with a few memorized prayers and an invocation of the saints to pray for us.<\/p>\n

An attitude of gratitude is very important to me, and I strive to instill it in my children. One way I do this is by modeling thanksgiving in prayer. In those few moments on the way to school, I thank God for the countless blessings in our lives. I even thank Him for the unexpected, like rainy days and windy weather, because I truly want my children to recognize that everything<\/em> in life comes from God.<\/p>\n

On that particular morning, when I was still feeling overwhelmed about my health, I recognized my need to thank and praise God more than ever. I don\u2019t remember the specifics of my prayer that day, but I do remember feeling lighter when I finished. My anxiety subsided, and a breath of hope filled my heart.<\/p>\n

Thanksgiving Day is three\u00a0weeks away. It is one of my favorite holidays, because we have the opportunity to focus our attention on the blessings and gifts that fill our hearts and homes. But why wait until Thanksgiving Day to offer a prayer of gratitude? Why not cultivate a month of thanksgiving all November long? (And possibly beyond?)<\/p>\n

Here are four simple ideas to inspire gratitude, as we prepare to celebrate Thanksgiving:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Keep a list.<\/strong>\u00a0Every day, jot down three, five or more things you are grateful for. Keep them in a journal on your nightstand, in order to form this into a daily habit. St. Ignatius of Loyola encouraged reviewing each day with gratitude, as part of his\u00a0daily examen prayer<\/a>. Consider extending this practice after Thanksgiving Day and doing it year-round.<\/p>\n

Involve the family.\u00a0<\/strong>Invite the entire family to keep a gratitude list in a prominent spot in your home, leading up to Thanksgiving. In years past, my family has made a Thanksgiving tree and written blessings on hand-cut leaves. We also have used the chalkboard in our kitchen to keep an ongoing list. What is special about this tradition is that your family\u2019s list becomes a focal point for your Thanksgiving-Day d\u00e9cor.<\/p>\n

\"fullsizerender\"<\/p>\n

Read aloud together.<\/strong>\u00a0Stories are a wonderful way to illustrate a message. Consider investing in a few books that highlight the theme of gratitude. Make some cider, curl up under blankets, and enjoy some family reading time, which will certainly spark some thoughtful conversation about thankfulness. A few of my family\u2019s favorite Thanksgiving-themed books are\u00a0An Old-Fashioned Thanksgiving<\/a><\/em>\u00a0by Louisa May Alcott,\u00a0Thanks for Thanksgiving<\/a><\/em>\u00a0by Julie Markes, and\u00a0Over the River and Through the Wood<\/a><\/em>\u00a0based on the traditional song by L. Maria Child.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

\"Thanksgiving-Book-Thanks-for-Thanksgiving\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Set aside time for prayer.\u00a0<\/strong>On Thanksgiving Day, carve out time to attend Mass. What better way to begin the holiday than by offering our thanksgiving to God at Mass? After all, Eucharist means thanksgiving! Another idea is to add a mini prayer service to your family gathering\u2014or at another time this month. For several years, my family has used \u201cA Thanksgiving Day Grace\u201d that is published in\u00a0Magnficat<\/a><\/em>. We have even been known to sing a verse or two of \u201cNow Thank We All Our God!\u201d Another source for Thanksgiving Day prayers is\u00a0American Catholic<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Jesus told St. Faustina: \u201cBe grateful for the smallest of My graces, because your gratitude compels Me to grant you new graces.\u201d<\/p>\n

As I lifted my heart in thanksgiving to God that morning in the van, perhaps the lightness that I felt was a new grace being bestowed upon me, in order to endure the bumpy road to health on which God has placed me. We are, after all, invited to \u201coffer to God the sacrifices of praise and thanksgiving,\u201d according to\u00a0Psalm 49.<\/p>\n

My gratitude on that sad morning certainly refocused my attention toward the Giver of all grace, and at that moment, my heaviness was changed to hope. Poet John Milton said it well: \u201cGratitude bestows reverence, allowing us to encounter everyday epiphanies, those transcendent moments of awe that change forever how we experience life and the world.\u201d<\/p>\n

What are some ways you practice gratitude, during this\u00a0thanksgiving month … or anytime of the year? Please share your ideas in the comments!<\/strong><\/p>\n
