Gotta Keep Singin'

Have you ever just had 'one of those days'? You know what I mean; one of those days where it just doesn't seem like it could get any worse. Sometimes these days seem to come too often and it just leaves you feeling alone. Alone, like nobody understands what you are going through and that nobody could help. Or maybe you haven't had one of those days in a while; rather you've had just the opposite. One of those days where it just doesn't seem like anything bad could ever happen. Like everything is just going your way. Everything is just how you had planned it to be. Let us not forget who provided us life. For either way, in the bad times and the good times you just gotta keep singin'. You have to continually sing praise to the Lord and seek His face always! It's so easy to be joyful when everything is good, but to whom are you giving the glory? Are you giving it to the One whom deserves it? Even in the bad times it is even easier to just question or most often to blame. Instead we are told to find our joy in the Lord and to praise Him. Persecutions and sufferings will come to those who live for Christ, but find joy in Him for He has overcome all things including death itself! When things are good, when things are bad you just gotta keep singin'. To whom are you singing?

I know in our struggles it's hard to seek Him, but that's when I find that I praise God the most! Your post is such an encouragment, and I'm a big fan of the song! Hope things are going good at the Hill!

Josh sometimes I have weeks of lonliness and heartache and it is so hard to thank God after being so hurt. But those are the times we should thank Him the most! Your blog is truly inspiring...

Keep singin' Josh! God has some big, big plans for you!
