This is the day the Lord has made;
We will rejoice and be glad in it.
( Psalms 118:24 *NKJV )
Dear Addison,
We all have days when the last thing we want to do is rejoice.
Days when our situation is out of control, are mood is low, and
we are feeling overwhelmed with worry, guilt, doubt, fear or grief.
Addison, when you feel that way why not tell God just how
you feel. Ask Him to help you regain your joy again, and know
in your heart that He will help you. For we have this promise
from God; "I will never leave you nor forsake
you." So we may boldly say: "The Lord is my
helper; I will not fear. What can man do to me?"
( Hebrews 13:5 )
The Bible also tells us that our suffering from all these things is
part of our experience as a Christian. For it is written; My brethren,
take the prophets, who spoke in the name of the
Lord, as an example of suffering and patience.
Indeed we count them blessed who endure.
( James 5:10-11 )
However; When you do good and suffer, if you
take it patiently, this is commendable before
God. For to this you were called, because
Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an
example, that you should follow His steps:
( 1 Peter 2:20-21 ) So, Rejoice that you
participate in the sufferings of Christ, so that
you may be overjoyed when his glory is
revealed. ( 1 Peter 4:13 )
Finally Addison, remember that tough times never last, but
tough people do! Therefore; Rejoice in the Lord
always. Again I will say, rejoice! Amen.
( Philippians 4:4 )
All My Love & Prayers,
Pastor Allen
