Sing psalms to the Lord, you who love him, give thanks to his holy name. His anger lasts a moment; his favour all through life. At night there are tears, but joy comes with dawn.
Ps.29:5
David writes this psalm, stating yes there will be tears but joy always follows.
A pessimistic Christian is an oxymoron. We always have hope no matter how uncertain the future as with the current COVID-19 pandemic. Joy always comes in the morning. These times are an opportunity to witness to the hope we have in Jesus and that witness can start with a friendly, kind, patient and yes, joyful countenance, today.
Lord Jesus, help me be a face of hope and joy to the people I meet today.
Saint Philip Neri, pray for me.
