“They sang antiphony (responsively), praising and giving thanks to Adonai, for he is good, for His grace continues forever toward Israel. All the people raised a great shout of praise to Adonai, because the foundation of the house of Adonai had been laid.”
Ezra 3:11 CJB

“He will yet fill your mouth with laughter and your lips with shouts of joy.”
Job 8:21 CJB
When we look to the LORD and see the great things He is doing we can’t help but be filled with His joy, even if you can’t see it.
“God thunders wonderfully with His voice, He does great things beyond our understanding.”
Job 37:5 CJB
Today, no matter how hard or difficult things may be, remember, He is doing great things! So today let’s just praise Him, knowing He is doing great things!
Have a blessed day!
