“Oh, the joys of those who do not
follow the advice of the wicked, or stand around with sinners, or join in with
mockers. But they delight in the law of the Lord, meditating on it day and
night. They are like trees planted along the riverbank, bearing fruit each
season. Their leaves never wither, and they prosper in all they do. ...” –
Psalm 1: 1- 3
DO you just ache to feel more joy in your life? In this hectic day and
age, many of us feel that way. But the joy of Christ’s presence is already in
us if we follow Him. We can restore that joy in prayer and experience it every
day by viewing the things going on around us in a godly way – God’s way is
love, not fear. Read His word, rejoice at the good things, your friends, your
family, the loved ones God gave you. Speak no evil, think no evil – let His
love live through you and then joy will find you. Being a believer is not
battling to live up to a series of “don’ts”: It is a series of happy “do’s”. Do
enjoy your salvation, do love and obey your God, do enjoy His love and His
protection, His blessings and His help in guiding you through the troubles that
surround us.
