Saturday Thankfulness

"Ingratitude, we find in scripture is one of those especially noxious sins to God, as He will reveal His wrath against those who choose not to give thanks to Him and to honor Him...If God had His list of noxious sins, that you as a believer, or me as a believer could be written up for if we chose to put up with one in our life, ingratitude would be on His list.  Its noxious."~Pastor Bob Kosbau
