1 THESSALONIANS 5 : 16 – 17
“Rejoice always, pray continually.”
Our prayers or joy should not be as per our circumstances or feelings. It is living in the presence of the Lord and as per His Word and will.
This is about our total dependence on God and seek His grace and mercy always. Joy comes from the truth of His Word and not our surroundings.
Then, we see others also as His loved ones and reach out to them to bless them!
