A praise box
You won't want to miss Mrs. B's post on a Praise Box. What a wonderful and creative idea!
Along those lines, thanks to Nicole for posting this very thought-provoking quotation:
Along those lines, thanks to Nicole for posting this very thought-provoking quotation:
Like true love, praise is not based on emotion but on a decision. Your feelings may say there is nothing to be thankful for, but by choosing to focus on what is true, good, and worthy of praise, you can change you thoughts and your attitude. And when you praise God with your mind, your heart is soon to follow.~ Karla Dornacher

Thanks for the quotation; I needed that.
Yes, praise and thanksgiving are acts of the will. We can and should give praise and thanks even in the trials, even when we think we have nothing for which to give thanks. I would guess that is when the praise and thanks has the most pleasing aroma to the Lord, for then it is a sacrifice of praise, a sacrifice of thanksgiving. We choose to be thankful and give praise, or we choose not to--it is an act of our will. – Patti
