Romans 14:17

“For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.”

Joy in the LORD is different than joy from the “world.”

Joy in things that are irrelevant to heaven, items of materialistic gains, or money…that is circumstances.  And, circumstances can be dire as well, and most people won’t have joy in that kind of scenario.  However, Joy…in the LORD is overflowing and in abundance, and that never changes.

Circumstances come and go.  Scenarios wane and increase, both good and bad…but, they change.  The love of the LORD is never changing, and ever present, as is the Holy Spirit within. The joy of the LORD is glorious and infinite and powerfully compelling in force and gentle in emotions.

When we rejoice in the LORD, no matter the circumstances of “life in the flesh” we are establishing bonds and creating paths of righteousness that the LORD has provided for us to walk upon.  Our relationship wit Him is a bond that neither man nor situation can change.  Nothing can tear us away from Him, our Lord and Savior, our Sovereign and Mighty God.  The One and only who can provide life, and take it away, the only One that can raise up, or bring down, the only One who can hurt, and heal…Amen.

The joy of being in a relationship with the LORD counts for all things.  Only He can provide Joy and peace, for He is Peace.

The joy of being in a relationship with the LORD counts for all things. Only He can provide and sustain us with a Love overflowing.

He is forever.

He is always.

He is our EVERYTHING.

The intricate chains of love circle within us, for the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.  The Cord of three…Amen.

Never to be separated, nor ripped away from His hands of love.

Today, is my Birthday and the date of my Mother’s death; yet I find it comforting she went home to the LORD on my  Birthday.

I find it to be the best birthday present the LORD ever gave me.

The best Mom I could have ever had.

Mom delivered me this day, all those years ago…and then the LORD delivered her home today on my birthday, for all eternity where we will see each other again, and never have to say goodbye again. Special connection for life!

So, thank You LORD for being YOU.

Thank You for Loving me.

And, thank You for allowing me to LOVE YOU and feel the joy of Your Spirit from within.

“Dear Father, may all of Your children know the joy of loving You, and the joy of You loving them, may they embrace You and obey You, and follow the light, giving You all glory, honor and victory now and always, in Jesus precious name, Amen.”
