I believe it’s true that you cannot put a price tag on a thankful spirit.

night when I said to my wife, “This is a $1 million meal for sure.” 

How in the world do you tip a $1 million meal? 

As I was ruminating this through my mind, my wife sat down in the living
room with me and said, “Did you really mean it was a $1 million meal?” 

Throughout life, I have learned one basic fact. If I don't say what I
think I can't get into trouble. Am I in trouble now? 

If I would sell all my assets, I know I could not come anywhere near the
tip due for a $1 million meal. 

Not knowing what to do, I said with the most gracious smile I could
paint on my face, "Yes, my dear. It certainly was a $1 million meal, in 
my opinion." 

“Well,” she said, “that complement is worth $1 million to me.” 

I sighed a very deep sigh and realized I had actually tipped her more
than I would tip the waitress at the restaurant. Life just can't get 
any better than that. 

As we exchanged smiles, I couldn't help but think of something the
apostle Paul said, "And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to 
the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful” 
(Colossians 3:15). 

I believe it's true that you cannot put a price tag on a thankful
spirit.
