Have you had your Joy Juice today? Fill your heart with joy; fill your thoughts
with joy; fill your life with joy…the genuine joy of Jesus!
So often we
are encouraged to seize the opportunity to do whatever makes us happy! The
worldly thought-process is to do whatever you’d like, as long as it doesn’t
hurt someone else. The problem with that
is that unwise choices usually DO hurt someone else in one way or another. And
the “happiness” that those kinds of choices bring is only temporary.
How do we
fill our hearts, our thoughts, our lives with joy? By seeking a deeper, more
personal relationship with Jesus Christ. We know about Him…..but do we really
“know” Him ---as a personal Savoir and intimate friend? Do our thoughts focus on the Word of God; do
our lives reflect the joy of the Lord.
Philippians
4:8 is a wonderful place to start and finish: “8 Finally,
brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right,
whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is
excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.”
Think about the things of Jesus and the
way He can fill your heart, your thoughts and your life with abundant joy.
