Welcome

I hope you find these visits with Jesus to be inviting as well as inspiring and life-changing.
And may these prayers help you to see that God is closer than you ever imagined…
Acts 17:27
I Gotta be Honest
Rejoice in the Lord always.
I will say it again: Rejoice!
Philippians 4:4 (NIV)

Dear Jesus, I gotta be honest, there are days I do not feel like rejoicing. But I know that if I only rejoice when things are perfect—I will never do it.
I do know there is much to joy in, such as Your compassion, love, and Your glorious creation. And most of all, Your redemption and Your promise of heaven for those who follow You.
I find room for many things in my daily life. May I always find room in my heart to rejoice in You, Lord.
Questions for Pondering…
Why do I tend to put off rejoicing?
Why does the Lord ask us to rejoice?
