Joy along the Road

Psalm 16:11
Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.

Many think that a Christian life is one of boring drudgery. Religious duty that one must do. No fun.

They are wrong.

Psalm 105:43
And he brought forth his people with joy, and his chosen with gladness:

Now the joy of the Lord is not the same as worldly happiness. How many times have you wanted something, got it, and in such a short time that 'happiness' evaporated?

The joy that is in Jesus is everlasting. It takes hold of your heart and soul and lifts them up heavenward.

A joy that even the enemy can't steal.

Seek the Lord and you will find joy. His joy. When you consider the heavens and the earth made by His word. When you commune with your Heavenly Father and know that HE loves you - what gets better than that?

Rejoice for the Lord is come with open arms. Ready to receive all that believe on Him.

This journey through life on earth wasn't meant to be walked alone. Before you rise in the morning, call on the Lord and walk with Him. Experience the joy of your salvation.

Don't leave home without it.
