Thank you !

Colossians 3:15 - Live in Gratitude (TOB).

We live in a generation that no longer knows how to say thank you ! Children are not grateful to their parents, after all it is normal what they do for them, forgetting that many are neglected by their "parents". Employers are not grateful to their employees, after all they get paid for it. Customers are not grateful for those who serve them, after all it is their job. Christians have no deference to ministries, after all the good they do us comes from God and it is normal that they take care of us. Gifts no longer warm hearts, emotional gestures are suspicious... in short, the love of the greatest number is cold, giving way to a dry and hard heart (Matthew 24.12).

This is not new, the Hebrews who came out of Egypt had the same mentality. Moses, under the anointing of the Lord, had brought them out of slavery. It was normal that he provided for all their needs and their dissatisfaction was justified when things did not turn out the way they wanted ! Don't you find that many have this optic ?

Living in gratitude is a lifestyle. This is only possible for those who allow themselves to be penetrated by love. The reflex of sincere thank you can only come from a person who fully grasps grace. The Lord does not consider this way of living as an option but He demands it, even demands it. He does not want it only for Himself but also in all our social relationships. Lack of recognition, dissatisfaction, dissatisfaction are the worst antidotes to praise and worship. If we are to praise God in the flow of his love, we need our hearts to change.

Good reflection.
