Scripture Sunday

Print

"Consider it pure joy, by brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of  your faith develops perseverance."
~ James 1.2-3

"Rejoice in the Lord always.  I will say it again: Rejoice!"
~ Philippians 4.4

"Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances,
for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus."
~ 1 Thessalonians 5.16-18
Blessings,
Ellen

  4. I love and NEED to be reminded about Joy...it is everywhere in the Bible. It is not a natural thing for us to be joyful in hard places..it is Him that it comes from and I so have learned from Him through Ann V. that it does come through the giving of thanks! Love your word reminders today:)

  5. God has really been working in my life, making James 1:2-3 more of a reality. I'm thankful that I'm learning to see the positives, even in the midst of trials!

  7. James is always such a good book to soak up slowly! I have often posted these reminders of joy about my house to help keep me reminded. Thank you for bringing them back to the front of my mind!
