Our hearts should be drawn out in gratitude for even the most minor of blessings. Even if we were homeless and living on the streets, it would be better than a majority of the people on the face of this earth. The greatest danger to us in our luxury, is abundance. It will canker the best of us.
If we want to be part of a Zion people, we need to have a Consecrated heart – and one that is full of gratitude. When we are filled with gratitude, greediness, selfishness and sin flee from our beings. When we feel entitled (“you OWE me”), then sin and error enters our thinking and then acting. The correlation is unmistakable in my life.
