A Daily Devotion for Tuesday, August 23

Philippians 4:4

Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!

It is so difficult to see beyond hurt or beyond anger. This verse reminds me my feelings in the moment are not really what is important. If I could remember to think beyond that moment, I would again be in God’s company, able to rejoice and take comfort in Him. There is always so much to be thankful for.

Father God, I forget to rejoice in your constant presence. You are always with me, a source of joy which can never be extinguished. Amen
