Rejoice Always!

Posted By Jacque on January 24, 2009

Thank you to Quietmom who reminded me that we must rejoice in the LORD always. I have not had much time to blog our loves here or participate in memes or much of anything. I don’t mind so much, since we are getting Gleaning the Harvest going as well as Training Daughters Teaching Wives, Training Sons To Be Men, Saturday Psalm & Praiseand State Exploration for the children to help us with and for their home schooling. Add Growing in Grace, HSBA, and TOS reviews to home keeping, sniffles and colds and everyday barn chores and things are making a monumental shift again in our lives. The LORD reigns. As long as I keep that at the helm of this great ship of life, and the rough seas are nothing.

Philippians 4: 4Rejoice in the Lord always: and again I say, Rejoice.

Children are ill.

Psalm 20:5
We will rejoice in thy salvation, and in the name of our God we will set up our banners: the LORD fulfil all thy petitions.

God is our healer and gives us strength to  help wipe runny noses and hold cranky babies.

Psalm 21:1
The king shall joy in thy strength, O LORD; and in thy salvation how greatly shall he rejoice!

Not enough time to do all I have on my plate.

Psalm 28:7
The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him.

I am thankful the LORD gives wisdom to know what to do and what to give up.

Psalm 30:1
I will extol thee, O LORD; for thou hast lifted me up, and hast not made my foes to rejoice over me.

We have a smelly, lame, loud goat in our office in a refrigerator box.

Psalm 32:11
Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, ye righteous: and shout for joy, all ye that are upright in heart.

God is sufficient and gives strength for the task at hand.

Psalm 33:1
Rejoice in the LORD, O ye righteous: for praise is comely for the upright.

It has been six years since we started the 1200sqft addition that is still not completed. It is COLD.

Psalm 35:9
And my soul shall be joyful in the LORD: it shall rejoice in his salvation.

It is in His time that we walk, not our own.

Psalm 35:24
Judge me, O LORD my God, according to thy righteousness; and let them not rejoice over me.

Obama is passing laws to use our money to fund abortions. He and his administration will pass many more ungodly policies before it’s all over.

Psalm 40:16
Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: let such as love thy salvation say continually, The LORD be magnified.

God is GOOD and RIGHT and TRUE. Without Him all life ceases to exist.

Psalm 86:4
Rejoice the soul of thy servant: for unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.

Friends have become enemies and lie about me behind my back. Family say they know the LORD and live as though they don’t.

Psalm 97:1
The LORD reigneth; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of isles be glad thereof.

God has provided me with a family who loves me and in whom I have found my very best friends.

Psalm 97:8
Zion heard, and was glad; and the daughters of Judah rejoiced because of thy judgments, O LORD.

Not enough time to spend with my dear husband, whom I love very much.

Psalm 97:12
Rejoice in the LORD, ye righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.

I appreciate all his hard work, and I LOVE my family and the time I get to be with my children. I would not take a million dollars a day for the rest of my life to have it another way.

Psalm 98:4
Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all the earth: make a loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise.

Not enough money to give to all I’d like to help out.

Psalm 104:31
The glory of the LORD shall endure for ever: the LORD shall rejoice in his works.

He has given us Gleaning the Harvest to help out single home school moms.

Psalm 105:3
Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the LORD.

I enjoy my freedom as a woman to be a wife and mother of eight children. I consider it the highest calling to be Matt’s wife.

Psalm 118:24
This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.

God is more than the human mind will ever comprehend, and I am blessed to know Him. I am sorry for all of the people who really have no grasp of Him.

blessings,

Jacque Sig

    I wonder if my Firefox Ad blocker add on is the culprit for me not being able to see Mr. Linky anymore.

    Rejoice Always, even when I don’t get enough sleep. :O)

    You were on my mind when I woke up today and I wanted to come back and comment about this: “Friends have become enemies and lie about me behind my back. ” They obviously weren’t really your friends. A real friend is honest and works on the relationship. What they’ve done (whoever they are) is chosen NOT to work on the relationship and gossip. That is not a friend. They should read Gary Chapman’s book ‘Love as a Way of Life’ that book has transformed how I view relationships now.

    You are absolutely right Lisa. Those kinds of friends were never friends to begin with.

    Hello there!
    I just wanted to let you know that I left a comment on your daughter’s blog (Resting in the arms of Grace). I found her blog through my future mother-in-love, Robin, (hasanyoneseenmypurse). Her blog is quite encouraging, and I just wanted to let you know that I think she is a lovely girl and it is evident that Christ has His hand on her. Blessings to you and your family as you strive after His will in Christ Jesus our Lord.

    Love in Christ,
    Nicole

Hear, O Yisra’ĕl: יהוה our Elohim, יהוה is one!
and you are to love YHVH your Elohim with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your understanding, and with all your strength.' 6 These words, which I am ordering you today, are to be on your heart; 7 and you are to teach them carefully to your children. You are to talk about them when you sit at home, when you are traveling on the road, when you lie down and when you get up.
{Deuteronomy 6:4-9, Mark 12:28-30}

Welcome

Welcome to my online home, Walking Therein. I am a 40-something wife and Momma, trying to walk therein, squeezing in moments of Scripture reading, praise and worship and just quiet between the breastfeeding, child training, cooking, cleaning, child training, laundry, home school, child training, online ministries, and spending individual moments with hubby, adult children, Middles, Littles, and the infant.
Tis the life the Father gave me, and I am blessed to walk in it.
Did I mention the child training?

"Who am I? Nobody special; just a flawed wife and mom, daughter, sister, and friend chosen by YHVH to follow and tell about him."

I am a Believer in the one true God and the Messiah, his Son, whose name is Yehoshua. We keep his commandments because that is what his people do.
"...God's people, those who observe his commands and exercise Yehoshua's faithfulness."
Revelation 12, 14, 22

Jacque Mrs. Jacque Dixon and her husband, Matt are busy preparing and training their nine children up in YHVH's narrow way. We are currently living and home schooling in Costa Rica, sharing our love of Torah online.
