One bad habit of the people in the world is that they forget to say thank you. You are gifted with a present but instead of appreciating, you first weigh the present and if it is good enough, you smile foregetting that it is a gift given out of freewill and love.
You sleep and wakeup yet you cant spare few minutes of the life he gifted you to kneel down and say thank you Father. Ehpesians is saying to us today in chapter 2: 8 "for it by grace that you are saved,through faith- and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God"
Youre promoted in your place of work and you go out to celebrate with your friends but you forget to celebrate him.
You are exceptional in your accedemics yet you dont thank him.

All we do is complain of what we dont have, how to acquire more and be on top.
You are blessed but you dont bless others, how then do you plan to make more "for he has blessed you to be a blessing to others"
Thessalonolians 5:8 " give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus"

In Colossians 3:17 "and whatever you do, wheather in word or deed, do it all in the name of the lord Jesus, giving thanks God the Father through him".
Some people give just for the sake of giving, to be recognised and to feel important. This shouldnt be the mindset when giving.

When God give you and you dont appreciate or help others, God is discouraged to give you more and when you abuse his gifts, he willtake them away from you.

Therefore, I pray for you with psalm 20 : 4 saying "may he give you the desires of your heart and make all your plans succeed". And also for God to give you a thankful hearth filled with praise.
