Our Scripture reading today is Proverbs 4:23, "Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life."
It is a daily challenge to guard our heart. There are many different fiery darts that will
be thrown in our direction every day. We have an enemy that is all about discouragement.
I will say that to be discouraged and or depressed is a choice. This choice I have made
at various times in my life. It is a choice. The other choice we can make is to rejoice!
Yes, to rejoice is also a choice. Philippians 4:4, "Rejoice in the Lord alway and again I
say, rejoice." Paul tells us to rejoice alway. This means it is possible to do if we are told
to do it. You have a choice to make today!
