Rejoicing, praying, and expressing gratitude sound easy to do when life is going smoothly, but what about times when you’re struggling just to make it through each day? Jesus knew you’d have difficult times, and His antidote for stifled spirit is praise-not for the struggle, but to affirm His promise of eternal life with Him. Jesus loves you! Jesus died for you! And those are all the right reasons to rejoice in Him and be glad no matter what.
Jesus, I rejoice in You right now and thank You from my heart for the sacrifice You made on the cross for me. I am truly grateful.
1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.
