Whatever happens, my dear brothers and sisters, rejoice in the Lord. I never get tired of telling you these things, and I do it to safeguard your faith. (Philippians‬ ‭3:1‬ ‭NLT‬‬)

Paul asked the Philippians to rejoice always in the Lord, whatever happens. But what did Paul rejoice for? What should the Philippians rejoice for? What should we rejoice for?

I once thought these things were valuable, but now I consider them worthless because of what Christ has done. Yes, everything else is worthless when compared with the infinite value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. For his sake I have discarded everything else, counting it all as garbage, so that I could gain Christ and become one with him. (Philippians‬ ‭3:7-9a‬ ‭NLT‬‬)

So rejoice always for what Christ has done for you. Rejoice always for the infinite value of knowing Jesus Christ my lord. Rejoice always for gaining Christ and becoming one with him.

God blesses you!
