As said before in earlier threads, gratitude for God's gifts is incredibly important.
A reminder for everyone.. Gratitude is the secret to happiness.
If we wish to keep God's gifts and not to lose them, we must be grateful for them. If we wish to receive more of God's gifts, and not to be deprived of them, we must be grateful for what we have already received.
