Rejoice in Me! The time has come to rejoice in Me. It is a time of praise and festivities, a time of worship and glee. 

How easy it is to look around and find fault, to find reason to worry, to wallow in the sadness that abounds. But your heart was not built to live permanently in such despair. Come up for air and find strength in My joy. Find strength and purpose in the fact that I am with you. I bring you peace. I bring you hope. I bring you joy. I am here.

To rejoice does not mean to ignore or neglect the difficulties of the world around you. It means to be happy despite facing those difficulties. Be filled with joy, because no matter what life is slinging at you right now, I am here. I have come to put an end to old things and bring about new things. 

It is my hope for you that you come into these new things with gladness. Know that the battle has been won and I am sitting on the throne. Find peace in these truths and rejoice.
