Are you overflowing with peace and joy? You need
Christ at your center.
March’s
Awakening, Day 9
Joy is peace dancing; peace is joy
resting.
—Author Unknown
Desire joy and thank God for it.
Renounce it, if need be, for other’s sake. That’s joy beyond joy.
—Robert Browning
You
turned my wailing into dancing; you removed my sackcloth and clothed me with
joy, Psalm 30:11 NIV
You
make known to me the path of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence,
with eternal pleasures at your right hand. Psalm 16:11 NIV
May
the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that
you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. Romans
15:13 NIV
Joy and peace go hand in hand. If
you have Christ’s inner peace, then it will be experienced and expressed as
joy. If you are always joyful in Christ and all your life, then you will also
retain His inner peace. Christ is there to exchange our turmoil and distress,
sorrow and pain, and guilt and shame, for His serenity and peace, comfort and
joy, and innocence and honor. No matter what our circumstances, with Christ at
our center, He promises to fill us with His peace and let us overflow with His
joy. Go to the source. Be filled to the brim. Let it overflow from you and
overtake all those around you.
