Today's Serving of JOY JUICE (Devotional)

Have you had your JOY JUICE today?  It's a part of God's plan for you!

Before you were even born, God knew everything about you!  That's hard to comprehend, isn't it?  I don't even pretend to understand...other than---HE IS GOD!

In Jeremiah 1:5, God tells us that: "Before I made you in your mother's womb, I chose you.  Before you were born, I set you apart for a special work." He designed us for a purpose!  He gave us unique abilities, talents, interests and gifts...all to be used for HIS glory.   Are you fulfilling His plan for your life?  The Bible repeatedly tells us to "serve the Lord with all your heart".  If we are serving Him, then we will be sensitive to the needs of others and ways we can serve them.

Rick Warren tells us in his book The Purpose Driven Life: "For Christians, service is not optional, something to be tacked onto our schedules if we can spare the time.  It is the heart of the Christian life."

Mother Teresa once said: "Holy living consists of doing God's work with a smile."  I think what she meant by that is that serving God brings much JOY to your life!  Are you overflowing into others' lives today!?
                                            SERVE WITH JOY!
