JOY TO THE WORLD

YOO HOO DARLING! Not feeling especially joyful? Don't worry. Nothing is wrong if you do not feel joyful today. 🔐 Joy is not the only sign of discipleship.


What is joy? Joy is the reward of patiently seeing God in the dull days (of trusting when you cannot see). Joy is your heart's response to God's smile of recognition of your faithfulness. (excerpted from God Calling)


Courage plus unselfish thoughts for others are also a sign that you are aligned with God. Keep trying. Keep trusting. Keep praying. Keep moving forward. Joy will come. It is a promise, darling.


Psalm 100 1 Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all ye lands. 2 Serve the Lord with gladness: come before his presence with singing. 3 Know ye that the Lord he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. 4 Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name. 5 For the Lord is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations.
