Get Your Joy Back by Joel Osteen

"Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy."
1 Peter 1:8, NIV

TODAY'S WORD:
Have the difficulties and pressures of life taken your joy away? Today is the day to get it back! It's time to get excited about your future and learn to enjoy each and every moment.


If you don't make the conscious effort to keep your joy, as time goes by, you'll get more and more solemn. Not only will the enemy rob you of the joy that belongs to you, he'll rob your family and friends of the gift that you are to them. When you have joy, you can use that joy to influence the people around you for good. Joy is strength, and when you have joy, you can offer strength to the people God has placed in your life.

Today, draw the line in the sand and say, "That's it. I'm not going to live another day negative, discouraged, sour and grumpy. I'm going to put a smile on my face. I'm going to live my life happy." Choose to let your faith in Him fill you with inexpressible and glorious joy so that you can be a blessing everywhere you go!
PRAYER FOR TODAY:
"Father, thank You for Your love. Thank You for choosing me and molding me into Your image. Today, I invite You to fill me with Your inexpressible and glorious joy so that I can be a blessing to the people You have placed in my life in Jesus' name. Amen."
