“You may feel you have reasons not to be glad. I had a reason one morning when I woke up very tired from a late night of work. In my haste, I grabbed what I thought was spray gargle, but I squirted deodorant into my mouth instead! When things like this—or much worse—happen, choose to say, “I will be glad in the Lord.” You can develop a spirit of gladness and joy!” ——An excerpt from Mike Evan’s Daily Devotional
