Gaudete Sunday is a day of hope in the Lord. During this season many people experience depression and anxiety. Whatever the reason, the way out is to recognize it is happening and to focus on the future joy that is promised. Choose to rejoice and what you desire, will be.
"Say to those who are of a fearful heart, "Be strong, fear not! Behold, your God will come with vengeance, with the recompense of God. He will come and save you." Isaiah 35:4
