God’s Will
Rejoice, pray and give thanks.
That’s it? Is it really that simple?
YES!!!
God did not ask us to feel happy or to feel joyful or to feel grateful.
Feelings make a terrible leader for your life.
When we choose to follow God’s lead by using our faith and obeying these commands, all the rest follows.
True joy happens with obedience, not necessarily results. Results make us feel happy, but only for a moment and then we are off searching for the next result.
Joy comes from God and is not a feeling, but a state of being. A mind-set.
Praise God by faith and watch what happens!
