"Rejoice in the Lord always, and again I say rejoice! Let your gentleness be known to everyone. The Lord is near."
Paul encourages us to rejoice in the Lord ALWAYS, but that seems unrealistic. Into all of our lives come situations when rejoicing in the Lord seems far from our minds. Is Paul’s command here practical, or is it simply religious “pie-in-the-sky” thinking? Can knowing that “the Lord is near” help you to be joyful on a regular basis?
Thank you to Pastor Jim Kroninger of Our Savior Lutheran Church for providing the content for the devotions.
