Revelation of the Spirit- #49 Joy

What can be said about joy? Well I can say that joy is not easy to have all the time, is it? Joy is not just happiness. Although happiness is a big part of it, I believe joy in truly Christ working you. Finding joy in every situation in your life is not easy at all. To in every possible situation in this world find joy seems to be impossible but there is a savior here to tell us it isn't. 

Having joy while being persecuted for your faith is Christ. Having joy while you're heart is being torn apart is Christ. Having joy while the devil has attacked in every way possible is Christ. Having joy while you are being beat to death in a prison camp that no one will believe even exists is Christ. Christ is our joy.

No matter what situation we're in Christ loves us. No matter how hard the trials we go through Christ still sent His son to die for us. No matter how much we want to give in Christ is there beside us, pushing us to persevere. That is our joy. That Christ will always always love us. That His son died on a cross to save us and that He will never leave or forsake us. That is our joy. 

Philippians 2:1-2

If you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any fellowship with the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, then make my joy complete by being like minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and purpose.

Blessings.
