Gratitude

The principle of gratitude is closely linked to several other commandments in Mormon Doctrine. By recognizing that all things we have come from God and still ultimately belong to Him, we humble ourselves and can see that we too belong to God. Mormon Doctrine teaches us we are His children and by remaining humble can see that we can be used as His tools on earth to reach out to His other children. We can show gratitude most effectively through service and giving and sharing of the many blessings God has given us with those around us who stand in need, whether that need is spiritual or temporal.
