Full of Joy
October 15, 2007
1 John 1:4 KJV
(4) And these things write we unto you, that your joy may be full.
God wants us to all have a good time. You do not have to take my word for that, take the word of John, the apostle that Jesus loved. He writes to us so that our joy can be full. Now a lot of people will say, yes our joy will be full when we get to heaven. There we will be with Jesus and there will be no more sorrow. That to me is a bunch of garbage. Did not Jesus tell us in the sample prayer that things should be the same on earth as they are in heaven?
Why should the world have all the joy while we look like we have a sour look on our face? Would you want to be a Christian if that was the way Christians looked? No.
Yes, Jesus said we would have troubles but He said to be of good cheer because He has overcome them.
Find time to put some cheer in your life. Jesus can help.
