Have you had your Joy Juice today? Let’s go mining for some gold nuggets of joy.
We’ve
talked a lot this week about cowboys and some to similarities between the lingo
surrounding their ways and a person who is trying to walk the Christian
walk. To close out our week, I’d like to
share seven “Cowboy” Joy Jewels. We’ll
call them GOLD NUGGETS:
- As you wet your whistle from your canteen filled with the Joy Juice of Jesus, share with others & watch it naturally replenish! (You’ll be dancing a joy jig and causing a hoedown everywhere you go! )
- Wear your cowboy Hat of Hope from daybreak to the set of sun, knowing that regardless of where your path may lead(---over the mountaintops, through the deep valleys or across the wide-open plains---)God is in the saddle with you!
- Bridle your tongue with the Master’s love and truth. Allow Him to guide you with the “bit of blessing” and the “reigns of radiant joy”!
- Let the saddle blanket of God’s peace cover you as He goes with you along each troublesome trail of life.
- Practice consistently with your Lasso of Love and be ready to rope in even the most resistant of rouges in the Rodeo of Life.
- Are you branded by the past or blessed by forgiveness? Are you marked by guilt or giddy with God’s goodness and grace? Are you jubilant in His joy because you are truly, willingly branded by Christ? Only then, can you take the victory lap as your ride the White Horse of Faithfulness and yodel His love song with joy!
7. When the Holy Spirit “spurs” your
heart….Don’t be namby- pamby….SKEDADDLE! You’re in “cahoots” with God so…..go
spread His joy!
