toenail polish stays on for a long time...

"4 Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!" - Philippians 4

i think the "always" is the key word here. i dont want to use my busyness as an excuse for spending less time with my savior. jared spoke wonderfully on this passage last night and lauren and i got to discuss for a while which was awesome, and the desire of my heart is to truly always rejoice in god. paul doesnt say "rejoice when you have free time," or "rejoice when god blesses you," or "rejoice when you are at church or among fellow believers." i want a constant presence of god and a lasting joy.

i am forgetful, i take things for granted, i preoccupy myself with unimportant things, but stay with me throughout my day. be on my mind, in my heart, at the tip of my tongue. i love you.
