GIVE THANKS TO THE LORD (taught by Mel & Tim of The Bridge Church)

Thanks giving is to be as much a part of the believers life as breathing. 

2 Thessalonians 5:18 - "In everything give thanks for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you."

Psalm 100:4 - "Enter his gates with thanksgiving and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless His name." 

GOOD MENTAL HEALTH begins with a thankful attitude of heart.  Proverbs 15:13 / 17:22 - "A merry heart does good like medicine...He that has a merry heart has a continual feast."

DEPRESSION is the inability to see the goodness of God around you.  David frequently expressed his depression, "I had fainted unless I had believed to see the goodness of God in the land of the living."
Psalm 27:13-The eyes of faith SEE the goodness of God even in the midst of adversity.  Gods purposes, plan, and provisions are always good! Romans 8:28 & Jeremiah 29:11

James 1:17 - "Every good gift and every perfect gift comes down from the Father of lights, with who is no variableness, neither shadow of turning."
