LIVE LIFE TO THE FULL

 My soul glorifies the Lord and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior. Luke 1:46-47

Many people view religion as a heavy and sometimes even unbearable burden. They easily frown upon any semblance of light heartedness in spiritual matters. They stoop somberly under the heavy burden of their spiritual conscience. This definitely not what God intended.

The faith of the Christian should be a joyous experience. Your Father takes joy in and is interested in your life. He is happy when you are happy, He consoles you in sadness and grief, He supports you when the burden becomes too heavy for you; He helps you up when you stumble over obstacles; He enjoys your successes as you enjoy them yourself.

Christianity does not eliminate joy and happiness from your life. On the contrary, it returns happiness to your life. Through your communion with Christ, you realize the blessing of His presence every day. The more you praise and thank Him, the more happiness you glean from your spiritual life.

Happiness is the fruit of the Holy Spirit (Galatians 5:22). Your surrender and devotion to the Lord should be revealed across the entire spectrum of your life. Then every day becomes a celebration of Him.

Prayer :

Dear Lord Jesus, I continually delight in the knowledge that You are always with me. 

Amen
