Good things are happening, and gratitude is the only reasonable response.
Sing Your Song
Being in the presence of other believers is an essential part of being a Christian. You just can’t “one-another” without it. Relish the opportunity. You have a part in the symphony.
Let His Enemies be Scattered
God is present everywhere at all times. Thankfully, wherever you are, the Holy Spirit is with you whether you feel anything or not. There are also times when He makes Himself tangibly known. We need that, too.
