Thankful...or so we thought

Thankful
It means to be pleased and relieved , expressing gratitude and relief
Why can't we ever get this to intertwine with our belief
Constantly fighting against the wiles of the Devil and his encampment
Becoming more and more exhausted with each spiritual swing, not realizing that our false form of fighting is lulling us into the enemys enchatment
Being dissatisfied and rebellious , frustrated and mutinous.
But We say were thankful, our words, not his.
Expressing gratitude and relief, as long  as all goes well, until our good fortune suddenly comes to a cease.
Now were mumbling and grumbling , because we could not SEE one blessing today.
This is not what they programmed into our man-made belief.
Being taught to grab for more, beautiful , luxurious vehicles with the suicide doors,
homes encrusted with diamonds galore, who could ask for more
For he is a God of over flow, name it and claim it, fake it until you make it
These false prophets, with their fairy tales, their trickery,treacherys and unfounded  folklore

All this because we have lost that real desire to be satisfied, content and grateful.
Relieved that he is looking over us, forever indebted to his sacrifice, thankful.
What is it about us humans that makes us so thankless, when every single move he made was both painful and priceless.
