She said.

If you refer back to Luke 15:6, you will read the same words: “Rejoice with me.”

If you move on in the chapter, next you will read the Parable of the Prodigal Son. Perhaps you will notice, as I did today, that the older brother didn’t rejoice with his father or his brother. He had his facts, perhaps even true facts, but it was not a time for discussing what had been; it was time to rejoice over right now.

We would do well to learn to rejoice with the godly good that comes to our brothers and sisters. When they come with meaningful words, words that have infused light into their eyes and sparkle in their countenance, rejoice with them. Give them those moments of delight. Don’t move on too quickly – take some time to rejoice with them.
