As a pastor I have heard a cry for years for unity and revival within the church. When our eyes are on Jesus, the things, the troubles, the possessions of this earth, the cares of the world will go strangely dim because we will be beholding the light of His face. The things around us will no longer burden us down because we have cast our care upon Him. And we can continually reach out. I say a Christian is a joyful person.
Happiness depends upon happenings.
Something that happens in my life makes me happy. But joy transcends happiness. Joy is something that's always there no matter what happens because we know Jesus Christ will carry us through. I can still have the peace that Jesus loves me, that all things will work together for good to those who love the Lord. My family is looking forward to working together with you as we continue to walk forward to Jesus Christ.
