Be Joyful
As children of God, we are so blessed. God is good to us. He is our provider and protector. We belong to him, God loves us. Just knowing this should be enough to fill us with Joy. The goodness of God and his love is sufficient for me. It is enough to fill me with joy. Even though we will go through trials and hard times in this world, we should always look to God for strength and joy in the struggle. This scripture tells us that a joyful heart can heal the soul and the body, isn't that amazing. With our attitude, we have the power to heal our soul or bring sickness and depression on ourselves. So, anytime you are struggling to find Joy or just feel like you are in a slump look to God. Look at all his many blessings, open your heart, and allow him to fill you with joy.
Prayer:
Lord, we thank you for your many blessings. We are sorry for any time we have taken your goodness for granted. We love you, Lord. Fill us with your joy. Let it run over and pour on to the others around us. Help us to remain joyful in all circumstances and seasons. Lord, pick up all the broken pieces of our heart and put them back together. We know we are made whole in you, Lord. We thank you for your goodness and love, in Jesus name we pray, Amen
