Choose JoyTuesday, December 29, 2015
Thankfulness and joy are the healthiest emotions we can have. Joy is a fruit of the spirit, which tells us that it is essential for us to have so that we can have a close walk with God. We need to be full of joy to face this life with a thankful heart. With an attitude of joy we can overcome the obstacles we will encounter and handle them wisely. The Bible says that the joy of the Lord is our strength.
If you’re in need of strength today then fill up on joy. Look to what the scripture says about joy. Our joy grows by fellowshipping with God and meditating on His word. When we realize all that He has promised us and that living for Him is more beneficial than a life of trusting on our own strength then joy abounds and will grow. Through God’s guidance our spirit man is built up.
"You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore." Psalm 16:11
When we worship our joy is made complete. Joy increases because as we lift up God’s name and declare all that He’s done for us our anxieties and fears fade away. Through joy our heart trusts in Him and is made complete.
Need joy? Seek His presence today.
