Brothers and sisters, we urge you to warn those who are lazy. Encourage those who are timid. Take tender care of those who are weak. Be patient with everyone. See that no one pays back evil for evil, but always try to do good to each other and to all people. Always be joyful. Never stop praying. Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus. (1 Th 5:14-18 NLT)
Prayer: LORD, some days I just do not feel like being joyful in my
circumstances or thankful for them. When I feel that way, help me
override my feelings and remember that if I trust You and have
faith, You can work in everything for my good in the end. For that I
can be thankful, because I have hope that the way things are is not
the way they must remain. Thank You for making a way for me to have
real joy that does not depend on circumstances or my feelings. In
Jesus' name, Amen.
