The process of patience refines us and takes us on a journey of learning to trust in God.

So how can we stay in the joy of the Lord all day long, regardless of our circumstances? Here are a few things that we can be intentional about:

Are you too busy or too distracted with your own life to serve others?

There will always be something or someone threatening to distract us from our joy. We must choose daily to fight the good fight of faith. To remember the joy we have in Jesus. 

Whatever brings on these feelings of despair, we can begin by praying against it and seeking help from God.

If your regrets prove to be overwhelming, release them to the Lord. Allow him to meet you right where you are, just as Jesus met Peter on the beach after Jesus rose from the dead.

Lord, we pray against the enemy's attacks and ask that You surround those who love You with Your armor.

Today, we are going to pray boldly for the Holy Spirit to renew us and reveal victory in our lives. We do not have this by anything that we can do but because of what Jesus has already done for us.

Expectations, especially unspoken, can create trouble in our lives. It leads to assumptions where we guess, sometimes wrongly, and then disappointment comes in waves. But do we know how to answer that when Jesus asks the question?

You may not always understand or even like God's process, but you can always trust His heart of love for you.
