Doing Tasks On Purpose and With a Grateful Heart

Doing tasks on purpose and with a grateful heart.  As I type, I reflect on what I do on purpose.  Unfortunately, the list is too short.  I do many things out of habit but not necessarily on purpose.  Doing them single-mindedly, focused on doing just that one thing at a time. Many years ago I had a mentor that taught me to pray as I did each task.  Thank Him for the dirty dishes and laundry that meant I had a home with children.  Pray as I vacuumed, thanking Him that I had a home to clean.  Thank Him for the 5:30 am alarm, I had a job.  I would love to tell you that I have been consistent with this practice, but I haven't.  I wonder how life would be different if I did more tasks on purpose and with a grateful heart?
