I've been praying about the title for this series. Should it be called Eight Principles for Life, Eight Principles for Living, or something else. As I spent time with the Lord yesterday, He took me to a couple of verses on joy.
You have made 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
Those who sow in tears will reap with songs of joy. Psalm 126:5
I realized this is the perfect title - Eight Principles for a Joyful Life. Jesus said in John 15:11: I have told you this so that My joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete.
God had to work out a lot of junk in me so I could live with the joy Jesus desired for me. But it was so worth it! So hang in there and keep working through these eight principles with me. May the Lord cause your tears to bring forth songs of joy!
