Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! —Philippians 4:4.
Sometimes, the arguments & disagreements can discourage us and lead us to lose sight of our incredible blessings in God’s family. We have many reasons to rejoice in the Lord. Let’s not lose sight of those reasons, especially when those around us get caught up in pettiness, division, and rivalry. Let’s not let discouragement, grief, or danger wear us down and make us lose our joy. Our joy is in Jesus, an eternal, glorious, and victorious joy . Let’s remember our hope is in our resurrected Jesus, our Lord and ever-present Savior. Paul wants us to know that it is time to reclaim our joy!
