    We should never forget where our blessings come from. Whenever God helps us or blesses us, we should never forget to give Him thanks and then give Him the praise that He truly deserves.

    Introduction In today’s world, mannerisms are hard to find. For someone to say to you that they appreciate what you did for them has become somewhat obsolete.
