The advent theme this week is Joy so there are naturally a number of posts being written on the theme of “joy” and given it’s the season “to be joyful” I thought I would “joy-n” in…🤪
Do you need some joy in your hearts today my friends?
A re-discovering of the joy in knowing the love of Jesus that is down deep in our hearts – a deep, deep, deep joy.
I was reminded this week of the deep, deep, deep down joy of the Lord.
Have you experienced and can you remember that deep, deep, joy of when you found Jesus as your Lord and Saviour. When you realised that you were forgiven, loved, cleaned up, restored, healed, redeemed and part of God’s family.
There is a praise song about that deep, deep, deep joy found in Jesus.
It’s a children’s song but the words are so profound, we adults can definitely benefit from the reminder that because of Jesus we have a deep, deep, well of joy inside us that we can tap into. It’s rooted deep in our hearts.
When things get tough and we are going through hardships, trials and all sorts of tests we need to dig deep into our faith.
The Joy of the Lord is our strength and how precious it is to know that deep down in the reserves of our heart and soul there is that deep, deep, deep joy just waiting to be re-discovered.
If you need a reminder of that joy today I encourage you to listen again to the words of this children’s praise song – link is below- I hope it will have you smiling, tapping your toes and singing along before you realise it.
You might even have a dance around the kitchen!! I dare you.
Guaranteed joy x.
