Gratefulness

Deuteronomy 8:6-17 You can't be grateful until you stop complaining. The world says if you upgrade, you will be happier. It's a lie. The happiest people are those that make the most of what they have, not those that work to have the most. How can you be so dead when you've been so well fed? We are living in the land of flowing milk and honey! Thank the Lord for what you see (what we learned at the kiddie table), and for that which we don't see (dining room table). Then we move to the kitchen, and we see all the ingredients that go into what's on the dining room table and kiddie table. And we thank God for all of the work He does, and all the ingredients He has put in.
