That's a tough question. I believe that I show thanks for what Jesus did on the cross for me by giving thanks not only in the good times, but in the tough times as well. Things could always be worse than what they are and I have to remind myself of that. Jesus pain the ultimate price for me and I am so thankful that even in the times when I mess up, He died for me! That's is a price that I don't have to pay because He already did it for me.
My sincere prayer is that I show thanks for what Jesus did for me on the cross by showing patience toward people who have not accepted Christ as their savior. Not that I am tolerant of their decision to reject Christ and chose a lifestyle of sin but that I too was once in that state and God was patience toward me and did not dismiss me. He allowed me to come to an understanding that I needed Jesus as my Savior--that He chose me to be His child even before I knew it. For this He deserves my worship!
