Hello! The music director at the church I am a member of says this often as he leads our congregation. And I am thankful for that, because it is a good reminder that I need- Be glad!
It was good to see a thread with this title. Today I rejoice because:
-God revealed Himself to me and drew me to Himself at a young age.
-I have a Bible (several, really) in my own heart language, with a plethora of study tools.
-God is near, even in me, and He hears my prayers- my questions, my petitions, praises, repentance, pain and joy, and just the diary of my heart. AND He is responsive- in His perfect will.
Grace and peace to you, Reform! Have a blessed day with Father!
