Jesus said to them, “You cannot make wedding guests fast while the bridegroom is with them, can you? ~ Luke 5:34
Did Shannon J. Kershner’s commentary about Joy resonate with you? (reminder of that article HERE) Had you seen that picture of Laughing Jesus before?
Shannon’s commentary was a nice reminder of the amount of joy that can come from a group of Christ-followers. One such example is a group we call Joyful Noise Boys. You can see MUCH more about the crew HERE.
One aspect of showing such joy surprises folks. The one sharing joy frequently gets as much or more in return as they give! What a wonderful, renewable resource. 🙂
Give it a try. May we live this day with the joy of Christ in our hearts and in our actions…
PRAYER: God, fill us with joy as though at a wedding celebration with the bride and groom. Amen
Enjoy the day, filled with the Spirit!
