Appreciation is when is the act of acknowledging and showing value for a particular thing. Don't be an ungrateful person, because when you appreciate the little thing you see no matter how little it might be, more of it will surely come.
Why the complaint?
My mates are this.......
My mates are that......
Why not me?
What an ungrateful fellow you are.
Have you forgotten that some of your mates are dead?
Have you forgotten that some are lunatics?
Have you forgotten that some of your mates are in the hospital breathing with oxygen?
But here you are, none of this happened to you, you're still complaining, why not be appreciative of everything.
Did you know that.........
Some people are still praying to be like you? They are praying for that kind of house you're living. They are praying for that kind of car you're driving. They are praying for that kind of clothes and shoes you're putting on. All they crave is to be like you and you're there complaining instead of showing gratitude for what you've got.
Appreciate God with a joyful heart. Appreciate him for the gift of sleeping and waking. Appreciate him for his sufficient grace. Appreciate him in difficulties and when things are going smoothly. Appreciate him in every single moment of your life.
Many seek to be alive today, but they couldn't. You're alive not because you're righteous than them, Not because you're faithful more than them, But you're living by God's grace.
Just a little Story....
There's was a girl who came from a very poor background, they hardly eat a square meal per day.
She has a friend who is from a wealthy family, she always put on the best cloth in town, always seeing her with the best ride but her case was different. Not easy to live in abject poverty.
Whenever she woke up in the morning, she's will always say negative things about herself .." why is did God brought me to a poor background, why not a rich family like my friend, she gets everything she wants, hardly can I have a square of a meal, this suffering is too much for me to bear, and now I'm awake to continue the suffering " that's what she always says.
One day as she was coming back from the farm, she came across her friend who came from a healthy family, they both exchange greetings and in the process, the poor girl said " I will love to be like you "
The rich girl took a deep breath and was silent for a minute before she broke the silent saying...
" Don't crave to be like me, you're good the way you are, you just saw me that I'm living fine, putting on nice clothes, driving a good car, but did you know what I'm passing through underneath, I'm a dialysis patient and I'm also suffering from cancer, my days are numbered, if it's possible for me to be poor and live a healthy life I will " while saying this, her eyes was filled with tears and was about to drop like heavy rainfall.
The poor girl felt sorry for her and, then she realize the adventure of life, she saw a situation better than hers, Even though she's poor today, tomorrow might be better. Since then she learned how to appreciate God for everything she has especially for the gift of life.

Meet my able sponsors, you can always check on them, they are great people
The least we can do is to be appreciative of who we are, because there is always someone you think is better than you, but that person also has something you wouldn't want
