Appreciate

I've realized that every time I get something, I say thank you but I take almost everything for granted. I need to learn how to appreciate things and  not just expect to get things for my birthday and for Christmas. Luke 1:46-47 "says and Mary said, my soul magnifies the lord, and my spirit has rejoiced in God my savior. For he who is mighty has done great things for me, and holy is his name." God is holy and without him i would be nothing. God has created very single one of us. Although he has created us differently, with different races, personalities, talents and even the way we look. We are all different people but, we are all humans made by God. We should all learn to appreciate the things we have because we are blessed. Some people did once believe in god but they stopped believing because he didn't answer a certain prayer, or he didn't give them what they wanted. In other places around the world people aren't as blessed as we are, and they have to go through alot more to get water and food than we do. So appreciate things, thank god for what he has done for us.
