Quotes about Gratitude
Hebrews 13:5—6: Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, "I will never leave you nor forsake you." So we may boldly say: "The LORD is my helper; I will not fear. What can man do to me?" Don't covet; be content with what you have. The freedom from the frantic desire to have is grounded in God's promise to never leave us.

You have given me life and I welcome Your coming. Be with me, Lord, I have joy, I have joy.
