AN ATTITUDE OF THANKSGIVING

A young man fell into trance and met angel Gabriel at heavens gate, who toured him around the beautiful city. They walked side by side inside a large workroom filled with other busy angels. Angel Gab stopped in front of the first section and began to explain, he said, "This is the Receiving Section. Here, all the petitions to God said in prayer are received." The stranger looked at the section, and it was terribly busy with so many angels sorting out petitions written on voluminous paper sheets from all the people of the world
.
They continued the walk again until they reached the 2nd section, and Gabriel told the young man, "This is the Packaging and Delivery Section. Here, the graces and blessings the people asked for are packed and delivered to the persons who asked for them down on earth." The man saw how busy it was. There were so many angels working in that section, since so many blessing were being packed and delivered to Earth. 
Finally at the farthest corner of the room, Angel Gab stopped at the last section. To the surprise of the young man, only one angel stayed there idly, doing nothing. "This is the Acknowledging Section," Angel Gabriel told the young man. "How is it that, there is no work here?" The man asked, "That's the sad thing," Gabriel answered. " The angels are suppose to be busy taking records of acknowledgements, after the people received the blessings they asked for, but very few send their acknowledgments." "How does one acknowledge God's blessing?" the man asked "Simple,"Gabriel answered. "Just say, "'Thank you, Lord ' from the debt of your heart.


LESSON
Thanksgiving is a key, in the school of appreciation. if you know how to think, you can as well know know how to thank.
Appreciation is an application for more. If you thank God for his finger, then be ready to see his hands.
