DO REAL CHRISTIANS LAUGH?: IT'S YOUR CHOICE!

Baca:

"Dear brothers and sisters, when troubles come your way, consider it an opportunity for great joy. For you know that when your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow. So let it grow, for when your endurance is fully developed, you will be perfect and complete, needing nothing." James 1:2-4 NLT

Thoughts for the Day


God has blessed us with laughter and joy. Christianity is joyful and joy is good for our health.

We all experience difficult times that hold no laughter, but during those trying times God provides joy regardless of our circumstances. One of Webster's definitions of joy is "a source or cause of delight." God is our source of joy and he never changes, no matter what is happening around us. He provides the reasons for our joy: his love, his forgiveness, his grace, his peace, his strength, his hope for today, for tomorrow, and especially for eternity.

All of these wonderful things are ours no matter what our circumstances, no matter what we are going through.

Consider This . . .



We have a choice. When we are going through difficult times, we can choose to remember all those good things and to allow this joy to stay strong within us ... Or we can focus totally on the difficulties and fail to trust God to bring us through, to meet the need, to ultimately work all things for good.

God loves you. He wants to bring you joy that is beyond understanding. Joy through the good times and the painful times.
