You can’t fake JOY
May 2, 2015
Here’s a new definition of joy. “Joy is a pervasive sense of well-being.” What would a “spiritual selfie” of your life reveal? Would it reveal that you are living a life of joy?
Joy comes when we:
have clear direction in life
live in God’s presence
spend time praising God
thank God for what he has already done
What does a “joy-filled” life looks like? The song we used to sing says it well.
Joy is the flag flown high
from the castle of my heart
O let it fly in the Sky
let the whole world know
that the KING is in residence here
Joy on the inside reflects on the outside, not dependent on circumstances.
