The document discusses how focusing on Jesus can make our days better. It states that the Bible tells us we can rejoice in Jesus no matter what is happening around us or how we feel. Rejoicing means showing great happiness and talking about our joy in Jesus. Even when things are not going well, Jesus' presence can always make the day better. When we think about Jesus' love and care for us, our hearts can know joy and we can trust that Jesus will help turn anything upside down. Our days are better when we fill our hearts with praise and thanksgiving to Jesus for all the love and goodness he brings into our lives.

that no matter what
is happening around
us, or even how we
feel, we can rejoice
in Jesus. Do you
know what it means
to rejoice? It means
that we show great
happiness. We can
talk about our joy
in Jesus, and even
when things are not
as we want them to
be, Jesus’ presence
in our day always
makes it better.

Jesus and His love and
care for us, our hearts
can know joy; we can
trust that even when
our day seems
a little upside
down, Jesus will
be there to turn
everything rightside up. But we
have to do our
part first by talking
to Jesus and asking
Him for His help. And
when we do, good things
will start to happen.
