“Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in
all circumstances; for this is God’s
will for you in Jesus Christ.”
1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
“Our joy, prayers and thankfulness should not fluctuate with our circumstances or feelings. Obeying these three commands - be joyful, pray continually, and give thanks - often goes against our natural inclinations. When we make a conscious decision to do what God says, however, we will begin to see people in a new perspective. When we do God’s will, we will find it easier to be joyful and thankful.”
~ Life Application Study Bible
