1 Thessalonians 5:16-18: "Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus."
Being a simplistic creature, I prefer things to be spelled-out unequivocally. This verse is just that sort of direct statement for us. It is a straightforward, unflinching declaration for the believer: rejoice always and give thanks in all circumstances. So simple to read, but an equally difficult thing do.
Today or tomorrow, from the moment you awake (speaking to myself too), set yourself a conviction and commitment to do just what this passage exhorts us to do: to rejoice always and be thankful no matter the circumstances. Let us commit to this task and be sure to please the Lord by carry out His will!
