Appreciation

Eleanor went to bed at 11.00pm forgetting to turn the cooker off.The fire burned through out the night but the house didn't go ablaze.She woke up in the morning in a hurry upset that she didn't have time to eat..(i mean really? she couldn't even thank God for the miracle, for the protection from death, for the safe and sound sleep?)


Mike walked through the dark alleys of his neighbourhood on his way home.When he got home, he was angry at how much work he had to do and how there wasn't enough time to do this and that..(but he forgot that in the nearby alley, John got stabbed 7 times in the chest. A tab that led to the internal bleeding of his heart and ended in death)


Mary was always busy with her kids. She never had time to pray or thank God for even giving them to her.( Meanwhile her friend Josephine, was constantly complaining about her son doing drugs and smoking.she could never sleep at night because she never knew where her daughter was)

............................................................................................

We are who we are because the I AM made us so. We were made to give glory to God.All our worries were already taken on the cross by Jesus. So when we come to him, we should praise him and know that are burdens are on the shoulders of Jesus.

Be free in His presence! praise Him like you know. Bow before him, raise your hands, raise your voice in songs (no matter how bad you think you sound.lol)


It's the attitude that counts.When your heart is geared towards worshipping Him and praising Him, then you show your appreciation!


"you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your body"- 1 Corinthians 6:20


The Lord is good all the time!

Thanks for sharing. I need to have a personal relationship with God. I need to be more spiritual. Very inspiring.

@ Olufunke - You're welcome. It's a learning process, we need His help to be able to do the things that please HIM.we can't do it by ourselves!
