Rejoicing, praying, and expressing gratitude is easy to do when life is going smoothly, but what about when we are struggling just to get a foot out the door? Jesus knew we would have difficult times, and His antidote for a stifled spirit is praise – for His presence and promise of eternal life with Him! He loves you. He loves me. He died for us.   And those are all the right reasons to worship with love in our hearts and rejoice in Him.
