Over the past few weeks at the Gathering we have been studying Philippians. This past sunday one of our campus pastors was talking about her 1 year old son, and about when he gets happy he throws himself into her and smashes his face into her body. That is his way of rejoicing. She continued by talking about how even though there is still so much crap in this world, we are called to REJOICE!
We as humans do enough complaining as it is. When tragedy strikes, rejoicing is the last thing we want to do, which is why it's so important. The hardest things to do are the things most worth it. That has been what I have been trying to work on this week; is rejoicing even when you don't want to. God deserves our praise always, especially when we don't want to give it.
Philippians 4:4 "Rejoice in the Lord always, I will say it again: Rejoice!"
