Hello and a lovely Thursday to you in the name of Jesus.  We are still talking about “Deep Thinking, Great Thanksgiving”; the deeper you think, the greater your thanksgiving.  I don’t know if you’ve been in situations in your life when you were in deep trouble, things were very challenging and you said to God; “Lord, if you just see me through this situation, I will praise for the rest of my life, if you see me through this, I will never ask for anything again? I will just be thanking you all my life”.  God saw you through that situation, and guess what? You didn’t thank all your life! You still complain and get angry. I guess God understands; He knows that we are just being humans when we do such things.  The Bible talks about the children of Israel; they complained, prayed, cried out to God to save them from the trouble in Egypt and He delivered them. After delivering them, they complained, whined, murmured, they wanted to go back to same Egypt they were crying to be delivered from. Sometimes, the reason why we do these things and don’t thank God is that we forget about the goodness, love and care in our life. Jesus spoke about this in the parable of the sower. He said “The seeds that fell amongst thorns, are those  that the cares this world, the deceitfulness and ove for riches and desire for other things choke away the Word of God, so it does not produce in our life”.  It's the same thing in life, sometimes the reality and challenges of life, the hustle and bustle make us forget things God has done for us. It is important we remember things He has done for us.  Matthew 16: 9 - 10 (NLT) 9 Don’t you understand even yet? Don’t you remember the 5,000 I fed with five loaves, and the baskets of leftovers you picked up?  10 Or the 4,000 I fed with
