Have you had your JOY JUICE today? You don’t have to wait until a special
occasion, you know!
Our daily walk tells a lot about our
faith. Are we consistently striving
toward growing in our walk with God….or are we sporadic and inconsistent with
our Bible reading, prayer time and reaching out to others. Are our words kind
and encouraging? Do we stay out of
places of temptation? When others see
you, do they see a joyful Christian who loves the Lord and praises Him, regardless
of the circumstances?
There are those
who pin on their “I’m a Christian” corsage or carry a beautiful bouquet of
spiritual clichés to use when the time is right; but when temptation, trials or
testing comes---they don’t have the genuine faith to make Godly choices. They fall prey to Satan’s trap. It may be
giving in to peer pressure; letting pride rule their decisions; or getting
caught in the trap of materialism--- wanting more, more, more…
Our Joy
Juice devotionals this week have challenged us to grow into thriving JOYful
Christians who bloom where-ever we are planted.
May we become beautiful specimens of His love that will attract others
to our Creator. Let’s live
expectantly….looking for the many blossoms of JOY that God has planted along
our path. May each of us strive to live
an authentic, genuine Christian “walk” that always matches the “talk” that
comes from our lips and heart.
2
Corinthians 2:14 “But
thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumphal procession in Christ and
through us spreads everywhere the fragrance of the knowledge of him.”
Don’t wait for a special occasion to enjoy
the sweet fragrance of His JOY.
