Have you
had your JOY JUICE today? Look for the
good that will come from drinking in the JOY of the Lord!
Do you
always look for the good in things? Or
do you have a tendency to focus on the bad?
We have a choice you, know! Be
reminded that our thoughts determine our words and our actions. So what kinds of thoughts are you
having? Are they JOYful and
uplifting? If so, people will be
encouraged by your words and deeds.
But the opposite is also true! If you are critical and negative in your
thought life, then you can just about count on those kinds of words coming from
your mouth…which affects the decisions
you make, the mood you’re in, your behavior, as well as affecting everyone
around you! Ephesians 4:29: “Do
not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful
for building others up…”
Raise you
hand if you think you could use some help in this area of your life! Mine is
raised HIGH! We all need work, don’t we?
But we can’t do it alone! We need GOD to
lead us and show us how, what, when and where! AND we need a support system of
strong Christian friends to encourage us to face each new day with a JOYful
attitude. Let’s ask our Heavenly Father
to help us see the good….in even the hard, difficult times. When Jesus is in our heart…and in our
thoughts…I can promise there is always something good He will show you!
Today I'm thinking GOOD thoughts of YOU! Thank you for
being such an encouragement in my life by listening and drinking in the JOY
JUICE of Jesus daily!
