About the book Ten-Thousand Years at His Feet: The Transforming Power of Gratitude by Laura Vice Byrne

For some Christians and even for many non-believers, gratitude is only a concept, not a reality in the person’s life. Ingratitude permeates the attitudes, decisions, actions and ultimately the relationships of the chronically ungrateful. Ingratitude guarantees a defeated, unhappy life. On the other hand, gratitude “in everything” generates a miraculous joy in your spirit and assures triumph over your challenges.

To meet the tests of life and be joyously victorious in all things, author Laura Byrne offers six principles of gratitude in this Bible study based upon her exploration of the Scripture passage:

1. Thessalonians 5:16-18 (NKJV)
   6 Rejoice always, 7 pray without ceasing, 8 in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.

Whether you study the six biblical principles solo or with a group, you will gain fresh understanding of how you’ve inherited your attitudes, how your children learn to be thankless or thankful, and additional insight about the power of gratitude over your challenges. You will explore the message of “in everything give thanks” personified by Christ Jesus as He prayed, gave thanks, and blessed His coming suffering and crucifixion during the Last Supper with His disciples.
