BE GLAD!

In Psalm 32:11, we read these beautiful words:  "Be glad in the Lord, and rejoice, ye righteous: and shout for joy, all ye that are upright in heart."
Do I hear someone saying -- "I can't be glad -- I can't rejoice -- and I certainly can't shout -- for on this Monday morning, the cares of life seem to almost overwhelm my soul."

We cannot always control our circumstances, but we can be an overcomer, and as the song says -- "It's amazing what a little bit of praising will do"!!  We can either let our circumstances be a stumbling block to drag us down, or we can make them a stepping stone to lead us onward and upward!  The choice is up to us!!

I like this little quote I read:
     "It is your mission, tested and tried one, to walk out on the stage of this world and reveal to all the earth and Heaven that the music is not in conditions, not in things, not in externals, but the music of life is in your own soul."

Praise the Lord!  What a beautiful thought!!  Let's keep the joybells ringing in our souls as we walk, moment by moment, with Jesus, our wonderful Lord!
