"and he went on his way rejoicing" (Acts 8:39) He went on his way with an inward bubbling gift from God that made his eyes twinkle, his feet hop, his hands clap, and his mouth praise his new found God and Savior, Jesus Christ. What he experienced is the same for all who believe in Jesus and we're given the Holy Spirit and His fruit is joy.
When I was a child in Sunday School we were taught to spell joy this way, Jesus, others, and you. It's true, when Jesus is first in all I do, when others come before me, and I'm not forgotten but in my proper place I'm living a joy filled life. Agree? Has this been your experience? Share it!
