Joy is Good for the Heart

Joy is good for you and the people around you. I know sometimes it’s easier to bask in the difficulty of what you’re going through, but joy will be a much better response for you and for those around you.

Some of the godliest people I’ve met are those who’ve been joyful in the midst of their trial, when they can point to God and proclaim He is good when their heart is in pain. I look at these people and I’m challenged in my own faith. Their joy overflows and becomes contagious; I can’t help but see my own joy expand a bit.

Remember that joy doesn’t just affect you, but it pours out into the people around you. It can be good medicine for their heart as well.

I hope you’ll take the Scripture and tools you learned in this reading plan and implement them into your life. Joy has the incredible power to carry you through your darkest seasons and minister to others as they see your response.

Find joy today, no matter where you are or what you are going through. Find joy in the ordinary.
 



Be Blessed and be a Blessing!
