0:00.0	Thanksgiving is not just a holiday.
0:10.0	It is a way of life.
0:13.0	As we study the scriptures with Scott Pauley today,
0:16.0	we pray that God will help us learn how to develop grateful hearts and hopes.
0:30.5	Lester Roloff once said that sometimes you can praise your way through things that you can't
0:36.1	pray your way through. Are you can't pray your way through.
0:39.5	Are you there? Have you ever been there?
0:45.3	You know, I have learned that praise is one of the most powerful elements of prayer.

1:40.7	because of why we praise him. All for his goodness and his mercy and his truth.
1:46.8	But now I want to show you that praise is powerful because of what happens to us when we praise
