Caregiver Thanks (Jadah + Hosanna)

On this the worst Thanksgiving Day of my life, still, we give thanks as caregivers.  1) Thankfulness is not an emotion. It is based on value and promise. You are valuable because God made you, because Christ died for your sins, because the Holy Spirit inhabit you, and because God will receive you. Your value is connected to his promise. 2) Thankful does not mean I am happy because of all the things I own in life. It means because though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, you are with me. I am yours, and this is your valley. And there is an into it, and in the meantime, you’re with me. 3) Thankfulness is not a celebration of how great life is going, but the fact of the depth of God‘s provision of love toward you and that perfect love, cash out fear. God loves you fully, Christ died for you Foley, the Holy Spirit controls you Foley. Heaven is where you are ultimately and forever full. 4) We practice thankfulness, we do not feel it. Complaining is an expression of our lack of trust and God’s commitment to us for our ultimate good.  5) Thankfulness purifies  Psalm 27:1 leads to psalms 27:4  Jadah is connected to Hosanna — each is prayer    Hymn still true= Give thanks with a grateful heart Give thanks to the Holy One Give thanks because He's given Jesus Christ His Son —Don Moen
