Be JOYfully Changed!!!



            Have you had your JOY JUICE today?  No matter what you’ve done in the past, you can start drinking it now! Strive to be diligent in sharing the JOY of the Lord from this day forward.

            Some of the most dynamic Christians are those who have been radically changed and have a testimony that proves how far they have come!  Some confess of a life of alcoholism or drug addiction.  Others share about marital unfaithfulness or abuse. There are those who served time in prison for some crime. But no matter what our past, when God gets a hold of our heart, we are changed!

           Do you remember what happened to Saul on the road to Damascus? He was traveling to Damascus to capture Christians and bring them back to Jerusalem.  But God stopped him in his tracks, blinding him for three days. He personally met Jesus Christ and his life was never the same!  Saul went from intensely persecuting Christians to being totally transformed into a passionate Jesus-follower and preacher for Christ.  (His name changed to Paul after this experience.)

            Listen to the words he wrote in Philippians and determine if you think he was radically changed: For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain.” (Philippians 1:21)
           
            There is no doubt that Paul was a changed man!  And that changing power is still available today.  Have you invited Jesus into your heart? 

            Drink in the JOY JUICE of JESUS and be changed!
