As a parent, you sometimes get tired of telling your kids something over and over again. “Pick up your shoes.” “Eat your dinner.” “It’s time for bed.” “Don’t eat glue.” I’m sure you have similar experiences at your house. In Paul’s letter of joy, he never gets tired of encouraging people to rejoice in the Lord. Regardless of what your circumstances are, we are to rejoice in the Lord. Rejoice that we are still breathing, that we have an opportunity to love God and love others, that we have a chance to share the gospel of Jesus with the world. Christian, rejoice in the Lord.
Philippians 3:1: “Whatever happens, my dear brothers and sisters, rejoice in the Lord. I never get tired of telling you these things, and I do it to safeguard your faith.”
