Everlasting Joy

Good morning, I hope you are doing well!

Today is Fellowship Friday - The Love Accelerator

(You can learn more about the 7 Accelerators here)

1 John 1:7 says, "But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin." 

To walk in the light is also to walk in love, and the indicator is that we have fellowship with one another. 

The shortcut to walking in the light is gratitude. 

If there are any strained relationships, how could you take steps toward restored fellowship today?

And make it a priority to fellowship with people today. 

Here is today's communion meditation.

Over the last couple of weeks, I feel like God has been teaching me a lot about the power of rejoicing.

I think there's a connection between taking some time to rejoice every day and accelerating the results of whatever you've been praying for.

And there seems to be a connection between joy and God's glory. 

So, I've been studying scriptures on joy lately.

Isaiah 51:11 says, "Those the LORD has rescued will return. They will enter Zion with singing; everlasting joy will crown their heads. Gladness and joy will overtake them, and sorrow and sighing will flee away."

This is an amazing picture of joy resting on our heads, and being overtaken with joy, while sorrows run away. 

In today's communion we are thanking God for everlasting joy and asking him for gladness and joy to overtake us. 

Today's Health and Fitness Tip

Do your best to make it beautiful. This is a cue I think about while working out. Many people work out in an ugly way with poor movement, huffing and puffing, etc. But when you do your best to make it beautiful it seems like God's grace kicks in and helps to empower the workout. 

I am praying for you.
