Have you had your JOY JUICE today? And have you served some to others?
Most of us can easily recall someone in our past who was a positive influence on our lives. They served JOY JUICE constantly to others by "letting their light shine before men"...living out that verse is Matthew 5:16.
When it's your turn to go "home"...to heaven...to spend eternity with Christ, what kind of legacy do you want to leave behind? I'm sure that many of you are like me and want to leave a Godly legacy for our children, grandchildren and all who are under our sphere of influence. Wouldn't it be great if they were able to say that we did let Jesus shine His JOY through us continually and because of that, they came to know Christ in a personal way?
Each of us can and should reach out to others with the love of the Lord and be obedient to His leading. When we see a need that can be met, when someone is hurting and needs a friend to listen, or when we are given the opportunity to share the "Good News" of Jesus with others, we should DO IT! That's how to let our lights shine!!!
Be on the lookout today for that person whose body language tells you they need a friend. Look for physical needs that God can meet through you. You can "shine" simply by giving someone a kind word and a smile. Whatever God lays upon your heart, be sensitive and allow Him to work through you. THAT'S the way to leave a legacy of JOY.
