Pursue Joy

 


Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer.Romans 12:12

You don’t have to allow this season to turn you into a grinch or Scrooge but you can choose to pursue joy. I passed by a car with a decal on the window that said ‘Pursue Joy’ and it made me smile. 

At this time of year, for whatever reasons, many dread all the trappings and start to become  overwhelmed and anything but joy filled and joyful. Maybe you have expectations or you are trying for the perfect Christmas. I say why don’t we learn to sit at Jesus’ first and rest in Him. 

Much of the merriment is done for children but why not teach little ones the real meaning of joy to the world? 

PRAYER: Lord I thank you that we get to say Happy Birthday and to celebrate. Help me as I seek to turn it back a notch and relax. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
