Good Morning!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rejoice in the Lord always [delight, take pleasure in Him]; again I will say, rejoice! Let your gentle spirit [your graciousness, unselfishness, mercy, tolerance, and patience] be known to all people. The Lord is near. -Philippians 4:4-5<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n I love how these verses imply that if we continually rejoice in the Lord that we will have a gentle spirit. I think that to be true since when we are rejoicing in God we are in a good space mentally and I think the way God designed us is that when we are operating in our best space we will have a gentle spirit. The last sentence, \u201cThe Lord is near\u201d brings a peace and calm to our minds when we meditate on that. The closer we draw to Him the closer He will draw to us and when we are rejoicing in Him we are drawing close to Him. There are so many of His blessings that are evident when we are operating in close proximity to Him. How can you rejoice in God today?<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cIt is both our privilege and duty to rejoice in the Lord.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cIf we rejoice in the acts of God without discovering His ways, we\u2019ll question who He is when He doesn\u2019t do what we\u2019ve asked.\u201d -Bill Johnson<\/p>\n\n\n\n Dad Joke of the Day:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Did you hear the joke about the germ?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Never mind, I don\u2019t want to spread it around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Have a great Tuesday!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Good Morning!
