Good News of Great JOY



           Have you had your JOY JUICE today?  How many Christmas cards have you received already this year?   Did any of them talk about sharing the JOY of Jesus?

            Some do…many don’t!  But I can tell you one place that you can always find the message of Christmas JOY as well as JOY throughout the year.  It’s a collection of letters and messages of love that is always available.  All we have to do is to open and read.  It’s called “The Holy Bible”.  When is the last time you opened this personal message….written by God especially for you?   You can find God’s love spread from Genesis to Revelation.  It’s a common thread throughout the entire Old and New Testaments.

Many times we receive Christmas letters in which friends share the highlights of their year.  Well, God’s Word has many highlights but I believe the most special ones have to be the birth, death and resurrection of Jesus.  Proof positive of God’s love for us!

            This Christmas take the time to pray for each person on your Christmas list.  Ask God for opportunities to share His love. There may be those that God prompts your heart to send a special word of encouragement this Christmas.  Share the GOOD NEWS found in Luke 2:10-11:  "And the angel said to them, “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of a great joy that will be for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord.”

            I am praying that you will desire to share the JOY of Jesus with someone special who needs extra Christmas JOY this season! Will you pray that prayer for me, as well?
