JOY AND PEACE

I READ : Psalm 28:6-9

Realizing God’s goodness, love, and care in our lives will enable us to give thanks.  No matter what kind of problems we have to deal with, when we meditate on God’s grace, our hearts will feel light, peaceful, and joyful.  On the other hand, those who often complain and have negative thinking will find a hard time to see the positive side of a problem, preventing them to be grateful.  For this type of person, life becomes very burdensome and unenjoyable.  Give thanks is a will and act of faith.  Make it a habit to have a thanksgiving heart for the littlest things we receive.  Even more, give thanks when we are under pressure because that will lift up our heart, spirit, and faith.

I DECLARE: Psalm 68:3 – But let the righteous be glad; let them rejoice before God; yes, let them rejoice exceedingly.

I DO: What actions am I going to take after meditating on the Word of God?

I PRAY: Pray as guided by the Holy Spirit
