thanks

My word teaches you very clearly the importance of gratitude and a thankful heart. It is an inherent duty for every act of kindness and generosity, for everything you receive. You owe thanks to both God and men. You have devoted your life to serve me. Do you sense my gratitude for this? Do you think that I would expect anything of you I was not willing to do myself? I am thankful for your every expression of obedience, for your every sacrifice to me. I love a cheerful giver and am grateful for your gifts. If you are not aware of this now you will be at the end of the age when I commend you before the host of heaven as a good and faithful servant.
