“There is a ‘secret to happiness,’ and it is gratitude. All happy people are grateful; and ungrateful people cannot be happy. We tend to think that it is being unhappy that leads people to complain, but it is truer to say that it is complaining that leads to people becoming unhappy. Become grateful and you will become a much happier person.” - Dennis Prager
Psalm 92: 1-2
It is good to give thanks to the Lord, to sing praises to the Most High. It is good to proclaim your unfailing love in the morning, your faithfulness in the evening
Ungrateful – Complaining - Envy
Psalm 13: 1-6
O Lord, how long will you forget me? Forever? How long will you look the other way? 2 How long must I struggle with anguish in my soul, with sorrow in my heart every day? How long will my enemy have the upper hand? 3 Turn and answer me, O Lord my God! Restore the sparkle to my eyes, or I will die. 4 Don’t let my enemies gloat, saying, “We have defeated him!” Don’t let them rejoice at my downfall. 5 But I trust in your unfailing love. I will rejoice because you have rescued me. 6 I will sing to the Lord because he is good to me.
1 John 1: 8 But anyone who does not love does not know God, for God is love.
1 Thessalonians 5: 18
Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus.
