"Rejoice
in the Lord always; again, I will say, rejoice!" – Philippians 4: 4
HAVE you been complaining again? Join the club. No don’t - far better
that we follow Paul’s repeated advice in Philippians and quit the club of
grumblers who find fault all the time despite the blessings in their lives. Just
look around you – others, in their millions, are far worse off. Count your
blessings. Paul always looked for the blessing hidden in his troubles.
Grumbling, he taught, short circuits faith in God, but joy restores it. The
very word “rejoice” means to restore joy. Like wi-fi gets your laptop back
online, so “rejoicing” links you to God, restoring His power and His joy in
your life.
