Good Morning

Good morning! I have to start thinking of ways to use this site. Here it is 6 A.M. and I am with coffee in hand getting ready for a little time with God.

This Sunday I am preaching on Great Joy. It's interesting to study to find out we can have great joy now. Many times in our lives finding joy is like nailing jello to a tree. We find "happy" moments waves, and we ride these waves thinking we have found joy. But shouldn't joy be more. Paul said "I am overflowing with joy in the midst of all our suffering (2Co 7:4)". Wouldn't it be something to find a place where no matter what the circumstances we could have joy.

Jesus had some interesting things to say about joy...in Chapter 15 and 16 of the gospel of John. I'm going to purposely leave you hanging right there, I hope you will take the time to read those two chapters and I'll come back later to further the discussion.
