Letters to God

Ask And Appreciate!

Luke 17: 11-19

Jesus gave them something to do. Faith has to act!

One returned... praising God, thanking Jesus!

Blame Culture

A Radical Revolution in Appreciation! or just saying a lot more “thank yous”!

Ask And Appreciate! A person who feels appreciated will always do more than what is expected. Thank you! We get beaten up by fault-finding but built up by appreciation

Why do we find saying “thank you” difficult?  We’re truly ungrateful people!  Don’t think about it.  Too busy / forget  Think it’s unnecessary  Blindspot / relational problem  Leave it to others  Don’t rate someone / their work  It might seem manipulative – “What are you after?”
