Dear Heritage Family and Friends,
The writer of Proverbs said, “A cheerful heart is a good medicine, but a broken spirit dries up the bones.”(Proverbs 17:22).Well, if laughter is good for our bones, what would a good dose of joy do to our hearts? A heart filled with joy is revealed in a cheerful face and expressed in a bright spirit, and it is contagious.
Just as true peace is not the absence of conflict, true joy is not the absence of sadness. In Isaiah 63:3, the Bible described Jesus as “a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief.” However, the writer of Hebrews said Jesus was the “author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before He endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.” (Hebrews 12:2)
Therefore, true joy is that deep sense of contentment that comes from knowing we are in the very center of God’s perfect will for our lives, even though it may cause us to suffer. In other words, true joy has nothing to do with the circumstances of our daily lives – they could be good or bad, happy or sad. But as the Apostle Paul said in 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18. Those whose transgressions are forgiven and whose sins are covered must “Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, and in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.”
TRUE JOY is only available to those who receive Jesus Christ as their Savior and Lord, and that’s the theme of our new sermon series from Paul’s Epistle to the Philippians. The Title of this sermon is: “To the Glory and Praise of God”.
