Easier said than done? Absolutely! Painful stuff happens. Some self imposed, some not. No one is immune.
Yet, the Bible says rejoice. It says it again, rejoice! It says the joy of the Lord is our strength. It says today’s the day the Lord has made! Rejoice!
When hard days come, it doesn’t come naturally. We have to choose. That’s why we stay close to God. Daily relationship deepens our roots to draw from.
So, just as we trusted Him for salvation, we trust Him in our daily walk. Let’s grow in Him and His strength, and let our lives overflow with joy! (Col 2:6-7)
May that be you and me in 2023!
