LETTING THE JOY IN
We ALL have all kinds
Of TROUBLES in
This world
Health troubles=Financial troubles=
And all kinds of RELATIONSHIP troubles
Sometimes we have
To REMEMBER to slow
Ourselves down and LET
The JOY IN
Being OPEN=to the
JOY OF GOD
“WHY are you troubled?
And why
Do questions ARISE
In your hearts?
LOOK at my hands
And my feet
That it is I MYSELF”
Luke 24:38-39
The JOY of God
Letting the JOY IN
Sometimes=we make our troubles
Out= to be BIGGER than
They are
Sometimes=there is a
SIMPLE SOLUTION=and sometimes
We just NEED
To be OPEN
To the JOY of God
And of Jesus
“Surely=you have granted him
UNENDING BLESSINGS
And made him glad
With the joy
Of your PRESENCE”
Psalm 21:6
“Shout aloud
And SING for Joy
People of Zion
For great=IS
The HOLY ONE of Israel
Among you” Isaiah
12:6
“………Your wife Elizabeth
Will bear you a SON
And you
Are to call him John
He will be a JOY
And a delight to you
And many
Will REJOICE
Because of his birth”
Luke 1:13-14
LETTING the joy of Jesus
Into our lives
There is a GREAT distance
Between our weaknesses and
The PROMISES of God
During this EASTER SEASON=
Let us NOT blind
To the promises of God
Let us be FILLED with the
JOY of the PRESENCE of God
“Because of my INTEGRITY
You uphold me
And set me in
YOUR PRESENCE FOREVER”
Psalm
42:12
RISEN Jesus=we REST in your PRESENCE
And we LET the JOY of your COMING
Rest within us
In the names of Jesus our Lord
And his LOVING-glorious FATHER
Robert P. Wallman
