Have you had your JOY JUICE
today? Jesus taught that we should “Love God with all our heart, soul, and
mind. “ And that we should “Love our
neighbor as ourselves.”
The world
teaches, however, that we all have our “rights”, and we should look out for #1…OURSELVES. We say that we teach our children to share,
but are we as adults practicing what we preach?
I’m afraid that we have become a very self-centered society. Do you agree?
Just think
what this world could be like---if we all would put others before
ourselves! No one would have to demand
their rights, because we’d be more concerned about one another than
ourselves. We wouldn’t have to worry
about locking our doors or being fearful of what others may do, because there
would be no crime! When needs arose,
people would see them and meet those needs. Life would be joyous and
carefree. Sounds a little like heaven,
doesn’t it?
We may not
be able to change the whole world here on earth, but we can influence our
little corner while we are here. Try
putting Jesus first and others a close second.
Not only will you be spreading joy to others, but I have a feeling that
your own joyful heart will be written across your face in the form of a great
big smile!
Drink your Joy Juice faithfully as you are
waiting to experience a JOYful eternity with Christ. And let’s remember to be
attentive to others' needs along the way!
