Have you ever wondered what happened to a letter or package you sent as a gift? Did you wonder if it was appreciated? Ina Rae Hudson really wanted to know, and the book The Neglected Art of Appreciation came about because of that need to know. At the heart of this work is Romans 12:6-8 (NIV): "We have different gifts, according to the grace given us. If a man's gift is prophesying, let him use it in proportion to his faith. If it is serving, let him serve; if it is teaching, let him teach; if it is encouraging, let him encourage; if it is contributing to the needs of others, let him give generously; if it is leadership, let him govern diligently; if it is showing mercy, let him do it cheerfully." If you have ever been in the position of needing a dose of appreciation then this book is one you will be able to relate to and enjoy.
