Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!
As the Philippians were facing hardships, Paul encourages them to rejoice. Happiness based upon our surroundings is temporal, but contentment that is based upon God’s faithfulness is always available, even in tough times. Don’t let circumstances rob you of the joy that can strengthen your heart in any situation. ~ Dave Whitehead, Senior Pastor, GraceNYC.org
