HOW TO EXPERIENCE TRUE JOY...
"Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God." Hebrews 12:1-2
J.O.Y.
Jesus. Others. Yourself.
If you want to experience true joy, this is how you do it.
Jesus first.
Others second.
Yourself last.
That's different from what the world teaches us. They are always trying to flip the order. Selfish ambition. Self-preservation. "Me first."
But we know how God taught us to live... the way to experience true joy.
Today, let us show others the joy they can experience when they put their faith and trust in Jesus. Let us set our own ambition aside and serve others the way Jesus taught.
Our prayer for you today is that you can live with TRUE JOY...
Jesus first.
Others next.
And yourself last.
