As humans we do want to be appreciated. Now look at this from this angle. God says He created us in His own image and nature so, this should tell us that God also wants to be appreciated for the things He does for us. That overwhelming feeling that you feel deep inside your heart when you're being appreciated, God also wants to feel that way.
So instead of always complaining and asking a whole lot from Him, why not give Him the thanks, worship and praises He deserves.
Take a moment to just say THANK YOU LORD and sing praises unto Him for He is worthy of it.
LORD, THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING.
