This Scripture was from Apostle Paul, Silvanus, and Timotheus, unto the Church of the Thessalonians (1st Thess. 1:1).

*REJOICE EVERMORE*—these powerful 2 words were special enough to have their own verse in the Bible. (Always rejoice.) Continually rejoicing is great for personal health and morale. I don't think a soul ever existed that didn't experience hardship in some form. Even JESUS wept. But through it all, there's always something to be thankful for, and something to find joy in. A simple shift in direction can make such a great difference where joy is concerned. Focussing on GOD, WHO HE is, what HE's done, and what HE's yet to do, instead of focussing on trouble that may be before you, can transfer you into a realm of peace, joy and pure happiness. Praising GOD through a storm is simpler to do than it may seem. Don't look to your troubles—look to GOD and give HIM the praise. It's refreshing!

Psalm 9:2: "I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing praise to thy name, O thou most High."
