There Is JOY In Serving JESUS!
There is a song that I have had on my heart here lately that has compelled me to write this devotional.
I have heard this song many times but I am reminded of how important it is to serve the Lord and having JOY while doing it.
Someone has once said that JOY is Jesus first others second and yourself last. I have to say sadly that there have been times when I was serving Jesus it has not always been filled with JOY because I got my JOY mixed up and it became OYJ( OTHERS, YOURSELF, AND JESUS) or YOJ (YOURSELF, OTHERS AND THEN JESUS) .
Make no mistake normally it's yourself that tries to always be first or second when it comes to not having joy.
The Bible states, serve the Lord with gladness Psalm 100:2 i wonder if we do this. Is it a smile that's from 9 to 5 or a smile that says you have joy and because you have joy you can smile.
Please take time to read through the words and then go to YouTube and listen to the song.
