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.

After asking the Lord for help in getting to work on time, I arrived safely, and with a minute to spare :) Praise God!

We were made different for the following reason: 1 Cor 12:25 Gen 2:24, Mat 19:3-8, Mark 10:2, Eph 5:25-27, 1 Cor 6:15-17 : The use of one flesh has been used five times. When man and female come together the union is part of the image of God... As the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are one. How do you become one... Let's consider how we became one spirit with the Lord...we had to die. Die to self. It is similar with our spouse...we have to die to self. Often times we focus on being right...but we should focus on being right with our spouse.  The key to a successful Christian life? You must die to yourself. The key to a successful marriage? Yo...
