Rejoice!

     Jesus came to earth. And Jesus is coming back. Your sins are forgiven, washed away, finished on the cross. Jesus rose again and we are His. And we will be with Him forever more. This gives us everything. We can rejoice daily in those promises. Here are three verses to remind us to do just that:

Rejoice always. 1 Thessalonians 5:16

Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again, Rejoice!  Philippians 4:4

This day is holy to our Lord. Do not grieve, for the joy of the Lord is your strength. Nehemiah 8:10b

     Allow the deep and penetrating joy of Jesus fill you with strength. Wherever you go, whatever you do, whoever you meet, He is with You. His strength will carry you through. His Words will give you comfort. His purpose will give you courage. Heaven is ours! Rejoice always!

Jesus,

Fill us with the joy of the Lord. It is our strength. All is well with our souls. Let the deep filling of Your joy work from the inside out as we move through the challenges of our day.

Amen
