What does having joy in your life means? Does your joy (aka happiness) comes from the people around you? Or does it come from the material possessions that you have? Or does your joy comes along with your daily mood?
When I was much younger, my only joy came from my material possessions. As I got older and went to upper secondary level, my joy seemed to be based on the people around me. But, life's ever changing. And slowly, I seem to have shortened out my thinkings and came to a conclusion that my joy in life is based on the abrreviations of JOY. Now, it has become more than just a conclusion in my life, in fact, it is slowly integrating into my daily life!
Joy simply means: Jesus Others before self You, yourself
For me, when Jesus centralise my life and my heart, I begin to feel my heart being filled up to its brim with God's love and mercy! And it came to me that if I do not share and spread this love in me, God's love will eventually stop filling up my heart in order to prevent 'spilling'! In fact, keeping all the love to myself is more than being lonely as there is not anyone to share your happiness (aka the love that you have received). Keeping everything that you have is in short, selfish.
As I share God's love and spread His love to His children, I do feel God expanding my capacity and filling my heart with an even greater amount of His blessings and promises! So friends, let's all make a promise and commit ourselves to do something that will bless the Lord, the people around us and lastly, ourselves!
*Lost in You alone.. Hearing Your words.. Sharing my heart cries with You..* -my kind of life-
