Joy in Every Circumstance - August 9

One of the hardest things to do in life is to live with joy in the midst of trials and challenges. It’s so easy to let life dictate to us our emotions and state of being. But in God, there is a joy available to us right where we are, no matter how good or bad the situation may be. Today we’re going to make space together to simply open our hearts and minds to receive the joy of the Father. I hope and pray that you find real, life-changing joy in God’s presence today. Our Scripture for today comes from Psalm 126:5-6 , and today's worship is Ever Be by Bethel Music featuring Kalley Heiligenthal. First15 is a daily devotional written and recorded by Craig Denison.
