Again I Will Say, Rejoice! (by Cathe Laurie)
Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice” (Philippians 4:4 ESV). Maybe it was the heavy fog that settled in overnight. Maybe it was the supermoon’s effect on my sleep. Maybe it was that only a few people showed up for my small group. Or maybe it was the never-ending barrage of political forecasts and subsequent conversations that made our future as a country seem as gloomy as the weather. Whatever it was. . . something made me feel weary and sad.
