Today’s Scripture: Then the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people. Luke 2:10 NKJ
I can not contain this great joy. I do not understand what God is doing with me through this second chapter of Luke but like Anna in verse 37, I can not depart.
I am filled with joy that I hope to share with those who are seeking. In trying to explain this passion, this joy, yesterday with a co-worker I can see in this chapter so many things I am trying to say.
The more I seek to be who He created the more I find joy.
Like the angel to the shepherds, I have great news for all people. This joy found in God is like no other. I can not contain it and I must share it. His light is caressing and His joy is full.
Can you share what brings you joy to those who seek? Are you struggling to find joy? I will be glad to share what He has given me.
Today’s Prayer: God of joy, I praise You and thank You. Help me to share with those who seek salvation. Help me to share Your joy. LORD, continue to strengthen my spirit and fill me with Your wisdom so I become who You intended. I want to fulfill Your promise faithfully. Amen

Amen, how I desire to participate in this great joy of the Lord. I am in awe of his glory and humbling grace He gives me when when I stumble. Thank you for the encouraging words.

Edmond, thank you for sharing your heart and your joy here! I too am in awe of His glory and His humbling grace. In His glory we find this joy we must share. In our stumbling we find hope and joy that we find true joy in sharing with those held captive by their stumbling. Blessings as you share!
