This prayer stands alone, really. We know the power of gratitude, and we know we take too much for granted. But evidently God feels strongly about this, because he accuses-
But my people have stubborn and rebellious hearts. They have turned away and abandoned me. They do not say from the heart, ‘Let us live in awe of the Lord our God, for he gives us rain each spring and fall, assuring us of a harvest when the time is right.’
Jeremiah 5:23-24
It strikes me that He is saying that the stubbornness and rebellion begin with a failure to acknowledge the source of our provision, the Lord our God.
May that never be.
