Be thankful for those things you have.
Don't let gratefulness be lost.
When always wanting something new,
Then perspective pays high cost.
Things of old oft have rare value,
For they have shaped who we've become.
Should we fail to be grateful,
The "new" may simply seem "ho-hum".
"Be filled with the Spirit; speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord; giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ." Ephesians 5:18-20 KJV
