You know you’re appreciated when

By Shanda White  – September 2018

 

When you’re praised without doing

When you’re given thanks because

There is nothing more than feeling appreciated,

best feeling next to being loved.

 

You know you’re appreciated when

You’ve been gone for awhile, or have been far away

Yet the moment your presence returns

You put a smile on someone’s face.

 

You know you’re appreciate when

You feel proud of what you do

And the fact that you’re able to lead others

And they look up to you.

 

Appreciation is something you give

Appreciation is something you feel

You know you’re appreciated when

Everything you do is God’s will.
