In continuing with our Finding Happiness series, we learn that it makes God happy to share his joy and love with us. When we get our happiness from him, we want to share that happiness with others. Check out our newest episode of One Quick Thought to learn more about how to love and share your happiness with those around you.
Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.
In the same way, there is more joy in heaven over one lost sinner who repents and returns to God than over ninety-nine others who are righteous and haven’t strayed away!
For this beloved son of mine was once dead, but now he’s alive again. Once he was lost, but now he is found!’ And everyone celebrated with overflowing joy.
I take joy in doing your will, my God, for your instructions are written on my heart.” [9] I have told all your people about your justice. I have not been afraid to speak out, as you, O LORD, well know. [10] I have not kept the good news of your justice hidden in my heart; I have talked about your faithfulness and saving power. I have told everyone in the great assembly of your unfailing love and faithfulness.
Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me. [11] Do not cast me from your presence or take your Holy Spirit from me. [12] Restore to me the joy of your salvation and grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me. [13] Then I will teach transgressors your ways, so that sinners will turn back to you.
Better is one day in your courts than a thousand elsewhere; I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of the wicked.
