He Has Made Me Glad!



            Have you had your Joy Juice today?   You’ll be glad you did!

            There’s a praise chorus that goes: “He has made me glad; He had made me glad; I will rejoice for He has made me glad.”  The “HE” of course, is God.  And the way to experience that joy and gladness is to have faith that He is in control of ever aspect of your life….from the small, insignificant details to the major decisions.

            When we find ourselves in a situation that is less than desirable, we can still have faith that God will protect, provide and guide us.  To live in the fullness of the joy of the Lord, we must trust Him completely.

           There will always be situations and people that bring us grief and concern.  But if we are determined to trust God whole-heartedly, we will realize that our joy comes….not from the outside…but from the Lord inside of us.    

           When I was a Kindergarten teacher, I would frequently tell my students to put on their “thinking caps”.  Today I’m asking you to put on your “joy cap” by trusting in our Lord to show us the best way throughout each day.  True joy comes from seeking a relationship with God.  Nothing else can fill that void…not money, not material things, not even another person.  God is the GREAT JOY GIVER.  And He wants to give you a double portion of that joy today!

Have faith in God in all circumstances.  Joy is found in your relationship with Him.
