What if my wife throws away the rose which I gave to her?

We discussed that you lose nothing by thanking.
Today we discuss that you gain something by thanking.

Suppose you love your wife so much, and one day gave her a gift with all your heart--a rose!
Guess what. She threw it into the garbege can! How would you feel? Of course not so good.

What if she received it with so much joy and gratitule?
You might be so inspired to even give her more.

How about in the case of our God?
Whether we believe it or not, He has given us so much--air, light, food, healthy body, beautiful flowers, nature, ability to appreciate things, etc. etc.
If I take it for granted and not offer my appreciation, how would He feel? But if I recognize what He has given to me and appreciate it, how would He feel? Would He feel the same or different?

Our relationship with Him could become so deep, personal, and intimate. However, it is totally up to me how I develop this relationship. Like every human relationships, it should start from recognition of the other and appreciation for the other, which would help deepening the relationship. Thus, thanking God is just a beginning of building this amazing relationship of God and me in this universe which goes even beyond our phisical life on earth--eternity!
