APPLICATION

Joy, the second “Fruit of the Spirit”, is almost as sought after as love. We are constantly striving and testing the waters of the world and our good works, searching to find what will bring us joy. Eventually we are worn out and defeated, left as prey for the enemy. The source of true joy ,however, is found in the presence of the Lord. When we praise, worship, and celebrate in His presence we find our joy is complete. Just as He is always accessible, so is joy.   Be courageous! Stand firm in the faith and in God’s mighty power! Be reminded of the events that took place on and around the Sea Of Galilee. Turn away from sin in your life and draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. Remember that God has swept away your sin. Give Thanks! Rejoice in the Lord!
