Rejoice in the Lord always - Philippians 4:4
This means rejoicing in God whether we are sad, happy, angry or tired. Yes, it is definitely hard sometimes but when you celebrate with the right thought in mind about how God works, it will be possible to find ways to rejoice Him.🙏🏻

What person are you?
TGIM or TGIF ? 🌞
(*for those that do not know - TGIM = thank goodness it is Monday & TGIF = same but Friday*)
For me, some weeks are TGIM but there are definitely some weeks TGIF 🤣 but ultimately I would want to be 100% TGIM and not wish days away.
