The theme for the month of February is\u00a0Joyfulness<\/em>:<\/p>\n

\u2013 Knowing that God loves and cares for you no matter what\u00a0 \u2013<\/em><\/h6>\n

Joyfulness is very different than happiness. \u00a0Happiness is how we feel when things are going the way we like them to go. \u00a0However, joyfulness is a deeper understanding that everything is going to work out in the end. \u00a0Joyfulness is tied to the hope we have in Christ that even in the worst of situations, God will be victorious in the end. \u00a0We have to choose to be joyful, not just fall into a joyful attitude.<\/p>\n

Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! – Philippians\u00a04:4 (NIV)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
