Philippians 4:4

Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, Rejoice.

Rejoicing in the Lord is not simply a reaction to good times or favorable circumstances; it is a deliberate choice rooted in our relationship with Jesus and our unshakeable purpose in Him. Even in the midst of pain, hardship, or uncertainty, you are invited to choose to rejoice, trusting that God's love is deeper than any pit you may find yourself in. This act of rejoicing is not a denial of your struggles, but a declaration of faith that God is present, working, and worthy of praise regardless of what you feel. As you gather with others, remember that celebration is a spiritual discipline, and your choice to rejoice can be a powerful witness to those around you.

Application:
What is one difficult situation you are facing right now where you can intentionally choose to rejoice in God’s love and faithfulness today, even before your feelings catch up?
