Always be joyful. Never stop praying.
1 Thessalonians 5:16-17
Precious Lord, your joy is our strength. From the rising of the sun until it sets, your name is worthy to be praised. May we always boast in you, so that the humble can hear and be glad. Loving Father, there is just no one like you. To you we come daily, for we have no other help but you. Hear and answer us now and forever, we pray. In Jesus' name. Amen.
