Addie made mistakes. One of them was that she called God a No Mind, and went her own way occasionally. Not in so many words, but you know what I mean.
One time she needed something and she had the money so she went out and bought it - a tie for her brother - and he liked it so much. And did she thank God for it? No, I'm afraid not. She did not thank God for it. And do you know what He did? He left her with no money and she had to thank Him for everything or she didn't get anything. So there you are, children. If you're ever left with nothing, did you ask God for things and not thank Him for things afterwards? Don't overdo it though. If you thank God for the selfsame blessing three times in two days, like I do sometimes, He might get a little bored. Addie just made a mistake. She can make it right by repentance.
