"When things are going well for you, be glad, and when trouble comes, just remember: God sends both happiness and trouble; you never know what is going to happen next." - Ecclesiastes 7:14

I really like this verse because it is very helpful in putting things in perspective, and it shows the importance of praising God, no matter what season of life you are going through. I think it is very easy for all of us to praise God in the good times. When things are going well in our lives, it's easy to be happy. But when the difficult times comes, how often do we praise God for those times as well? I think experiencing tough times as well as joyful times is such a testimony to the fact that God is in control, not us. For as dark as the night is, how much greater our rejoicing will be in the morning. This week I challenge you to praise God for everything. Good times, praise Him. Challenging times, praise Him. He is in control. 

Have a wonderful week! God bless you! :)
