A Life of Gratitude Series

November 1, 2012 By shelleyhitz Leave a Comment

A Life of Gratitude Book Series

A “Life of Gratitude Series” by Shelley Hitz is a great way to live out gratitude all year ’round.  Spend 21 days focusing on gratitude and watch how God transforms you from the inside out.

From the author:

I wrote this series during a difficult year.  There was a lot of transitions, loneliness,  grieving as well as financial stress.  I was praying about it and sensed God saying to me, “Yes, it has been a difficult year.  But, if you had never walked through this dark season, you would have never written these books on gratitude that have impacted so many.”  And instantly I knew that to be true.  These books were birthed out of my own desire to have more gratitude in my life instead of getting stuck in self-pity and depression.  And now I pray that God uses these books to draw you closer to Him and towards a spirit of gratitude in your life.

 

Book #1:  21 Days of Gratitude Challenge

[easyazon-image align=”right” asin=”B008AWLN24″ locale=”us” height=”160″ src=”http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51OWFc8GL6L._SL160_.jpg” width=”124″]During a season of transition in my life, I found myself overwhelmed with negative emotions like self-pity and a complaining spirit. It was as if a dark cloud had descended over me. I prayed and asked God for wisdom on how to overcome these negative emotions. And I sensed Him leading me to do this 21 days of gratitude challenge.

Over the course of the 21 days, God began to change me as I spent intentional time being grateful for all I have been given. I did this through writing in my journal each day and also sending a hand-written thank you note to someone different each day.

And now I want to share what I learned with you in the short, but powerful book.

What to Expect On Each Day of the Challenge:
  • Read my personal stories, struggles and reflections.
  • Read one scripture and one quote about gratitude.
  • Apply one personal application step.

Get Accountability and Encouragement

Along with the 21 day challenge, I also started a private Facebook group to provide accountability and encouragement for myself but also for others who decide to join me in the challenge.  You will get access to this group as well.  It has been amazing to see God at work in each of our lives.

Book #2:  21 Prayers of Gratitude

[easyazon-image align=”right” asin=”B009KUE87W” locale=”us” height=”160″ src=”http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51M8PRKaSzL._SL160_.jpg” width=”120″]Prayers are powerful.  Prayer changes me. When I pray consistently to God something changes within me. And it can change you too. However, sometimes it is easy to get caught up in the busyness of life and not take the time to pray. This book can help you form a habit of coming to God everyday in prayer.

21 Days to a New Habit of Prayer  They say it takes 21 days to form a new habit. And so I have shared 21 prayers of gratitude with you to help you form a habit of prayer in your life. I have taken key truths from scripture and reworded them into prayers of gratitude. Combining prayer with God’s Word is powerful. I have experienced this in my own life and now want to share it with you.I pray that these prayers help you to overcome negativity through applying the power of prayer and God’s Word to your life.

Book #3:  21 Stories of Gratitude

[easyazon-image align=”right” asin=”B009YWM3WI” locale=”us” height=”160″ src=”http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51R77kl5aPL._SL160_.jpg” width=”106″]Are you living life to the fullest? Or are you merely surviving from day to day?

One way to live life to the fullest is to live each day with a grateful heart. In this book, we share 21 stories of gratitude to give you encouragement and hope in your own journey. Gratitude is possible! Even though many times we cannot change our circumstances, we can change the way we see them. We can ask God to empower us to change our thoughts.

Our prayer for you is that you find encouragement within these pages. And we pray that you will ask God for His strength to renew your mind with His truth and the hope He offers each one of us every day. It is only through Christ renewing our minds that we can truly live each day with a grateful heart.

“And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.” Romans 12:2 (NKJV)
