Have you had your Joy Juice today? It’s not made from the “Fountain of Youth”,
but it IS made with genuine Living Water!
No matter where we turn these days, we see
advertisements, infomercials, and even friends telling us how to look and feel younger!
While we certainly want to pursue a healthy lifestyle, we don’t want to get
depressed about the aging process. We
have a choice: Our outlook can be joyful, thanking the Lord for each new day….or
we can choose to dread that next birthday!
Listen to
this quote by Samuel Ullman: “Nobody grows old merely by living a number of
years. We grow old by deserting our ideals. Years may wrinkle the
skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.”
As
Christians, we have the answer for preventing wrinkles in our soul! The antidote be found in Romans 12:2, prescribed
by “Dr.” Paul:
“Do not
conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the
renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's
will is--his good, pleasing and perfect will.”
Allowing God
to transform our thoughts will help us to focus on His goodness and His best
plan for our lives. We should be praising Him for each new day & more
opportunities to spread the JOY of the Lord.
Slather on the miraculous wrinkle cream for the soul…..it’s called “OIL
of JOY”!
