Mum Reads: Thankful From Within – A Devotion Book For A Grateful Heart

Keeping an attitude of gratitude is a must in this day and age. While modern society encourages consumerism, materialism, and instant self-gratification, we must take a step back. We must consider counting our blessings and actually being thankful for them.
