Have you
had your Joy Juice today? Make sure you
are sharing some with others…especially those in need!
During the
Christmas season, it’s a natural tendency for us to think about what WE
WANT! We talk about making our Christmas
wish list, and we drop hints about what WE would like to find under the tree on
Christmas morning.
This
year…..rather than fixating on what WE want or what we THINK we NEED, let’s
make a conscious effort to take our eyes off of ourselves and, instead, look at
others around us. There are many who
have all kinds of needs:
- Physical
- Financial
- Emotional
- Spiritual
Ask God to
reveal to you someone who needs an extra expression of His love
during this holiday season….and
then, be that person who delivers true Christmas JOY. Tell them about Jesus!
That’s what the shepherds did…remember?
In Luke 2, we read that “When they had seen him, they spread the
word concerning what had been told them about this child, and all who heard it
were amazed at what the shepherds said to them.”
If
we all would choose to go about our days with the same exuberance and boldness
as the shepherds did, then we’d find limitless opportunities to share with
others. What a joy it would be to
witness the “amazement” of others!
When people learn of God’s awesome goodness and grace, then they will
experience His amazing Christmas JOY!
