TRUST GOD! And Drink His Joy Juice Faithfully!



           Have you had your JOY JUICE today?  Hope it tastes really GOOD!

            What is your definition of “good”?  One dictionary states that good means: "Being positive or desirable in nature; not bad.When we talk about a good book or a good movie, it’s really a matter of who is giving their opinion.  What might be good to me, might not be good to you.  In other words, what is “good” is subjective to the opinion of the person doing the “judging”.

            This week we’ve been posing the question: “Why do bad things happen to good people?”  But let’s change gears for a minute: Why does God allow good things to happen to bad people?”  We are all sinners, right? Romans 5:8 declares, “But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” Despite the sinful nature of the people of this world, God still loves us…so much that He willing paid the penalty for our sins.

          All of that being said, we still deal with instances when bad things happen to people who seem undeserving of them. Whether or not we understand, we must remember that God is just, loving, and wise. When things happen that we simply cannot explain, instead of doubting God's love, our reaction should be to trust Him.

            Trusting the Lord wholeheartedly leads to a life of JOY by having the calm assurance that Jesus is with us always!

Let's drink our JOY JUICE faithfully in the good times and in times of trouble.
