Have you
had your Joy Juice today? Share the joy of
the Lord and remind others about the joy that can be found in Christmas!
Are you a JOYful example? If we profess to be Christians, we should be
filled with JOY because we have the best reason in the world to be joyful! ESPECIALLY at this time of year!
·
Instead of complaining about all we have to do
to get ready for the holidays, we should be rejoicing & praising the Lord
for His gift of love in the form of Jesus. Luke 1:14 says: "And you will have joy and
gladness, and many will rejoice at his birth.”
·
Rather than dreading the season we should
meditate on WHY we are celebrating Christmas….and thank God for His goodness
and mercy. Matthew 1:21 "And she will bear a Son; and you
shall call His name Jesus, for it is He who will save His people from their
sins."
·
When we
find ourselves getting tired and weary of all the plans for the Christmas season,
let’s stop and remember the sacrifice that was made on our behalf. Philippians 2:8 speaks of Jesus: “And
being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient to
death--even death on a cross!”
Yes, friend…we have every reason to be cheerfully
anticipating the Christmas season. Let’s remember to speak words of joyful
celebration.
