Many times we stop enjoying life simply because we let doubt and disbelief rob us of the joy of living happily for Christ.
Doubt fills us with fear, insecurity, anguish, worry and afflictions. Unbelief leads you to distrust the promises of blessings and protection God has for you.
Living full of doubts imprisons us with fear and, instead of feeling free and happy to have Christ in our hearts, we experience a life of failure, because we have not understood that in Christ there is freedom and abundant life, to live happily enough.
Don't let yourself steal the joy of living for Christ. The apostle Paul wrote:
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, goodness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance; Against such things there is no law.
Notice that within the fruit of the Spirit there is joy. Joy is nothing but the happiness of living the new life in Christ. This means that you and I, as believers, must manifest joy and enjoy life. We have the power of God in us, which is the Holy Spirit, that guides us to carry and express joy wherever we are, whether at home, school, work, church and in meetings with our brothers in Christ and others partners of social life.
Joy is a spiritual tool found in the Holy Spirit, which transmits that joy to our natural spirit and allows that joy to manifest in our soul, where the seat of emotions is, and helps us to externalize that joy. Towards the environment around us.
Joy is a gift from God through the Holy Spirit, nobody can steal it, because it is a joy that comes from God and not from material things.
Our main mistake has been, believing that joy comes from money, fame, luxury, or because beautiful singing or fervent preaching; in short, we confuse the true source of joy, for material things, and we feel sad if we don't have the material, instead of craving the joy of the Lord.
To celebrate life is to recognize that its enjoyment is for the joy that comes from the Lord and not from the things of this world.
