Psalm 100:2
“Serve the Lord with gladness: come before his presence with singing.”
KJV
Read in Psalm 100Meaning
Glad service joins action and affection: worship is not only speech but willing service before God. Joy here is a worship posture, not a denial of grief or mental distress.
Read carefully
Do not shame people who are grieving because they cannot display constant happiness.
Reflection
Ask how gratitude and willing service can reshape your practice without pretending pain is absent.
