"16 Rejoice always, 17 pray without ceasing, 18 give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you"
When I read this verse, it makes me try harder to do just what it says. Even though it may be hard at times, we need to rejoice always, pray without ceasing, and give thanks no mater what. Being thankful in all circumstances is not the easiest thing. Especially when life isn't going like you want it, or you are going through a really hard time. But with the help, love and grace of God, you will be able to accomplish that. I know I fail at times but He is always there to forgive me and carry me through it.

Hebrews 4:15-16
Hebrews 4:15-16
"For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin. Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need."
This verse is a wonderful reminder to me. It lets me know that Jesus was temped, just like us, but he never gave into sin. I like verse 16 a lot. It just lets me know that I can come to His throne of grace and find grace and mercy, even though I fell into sin. This verse comforts me in rough times, or when things aren't going well for me.
