When Jesus Christ is the Lord of your life, you will serve Him. When Jesus Christ is the Lord of your life, you will follow Him. When Jesus Christ is the Lord of your life, you'll give of your time and your talent and of your treasure to the Lord. When Jesus is the Lord of your life, you'll praise Him with hands lifted, out of your mouth, with joy that is unspeakable and full of glory. Have you noticed that the people who are searching for joy are those who most desperately don't have it.
People search for joy in marriage.
I know that marriage is made in heaven, but so is thunder and lightning. Getting married is easy, staying married is more difficult. If you are not full of joy when you walk down the aisle, you will not be full of joy when you walk back up that aisle. Marriage is wonderful, but it will not make you happy if you are not already happy. Some people search for joy in materialism.
