Joy C an we have joy in a world that seems to instill fear and distress? Joy is the sense of well-being deep within our souls that comes from knowing we belong to Jesus Christ. Joy rises above the sorrows and uncertainties of life and will culminate either when we die and go to be with Him or when He comes for us. To know joy, one must know Jesus Christ. He is the foundation of the Christian faith. The Bible states that He is God and that He took on human form to live and die among those He created. His life was sinless and His death was for sinners- for you and me. His resurrection from the dead ensured those who trust in Him a place in Heaven... with Him...forever. This was the most significant event in history because He is our only ticket to Heaven. And what we decide about Him determines our eternal destiny. May we help YOU come to know Jesus Christ, the only One who can give you eternal life? Please consider these verses in the Bible: Romans 3:10- 12,23; Romans 6:23; 1Corinthians15:1-4; Romans 5:6-8; Hebrews 1:1-3; Romans 10:10-13. And remember, " ...there shall be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents, than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance" (Luke 15:7).
