Irrepressible joy. Sounds good doesn’t it? To be content and happy no matter what. That is what MUST become a part of my life. It is a part of my life, I must tap into it. It being the fullness of God in me. I have everything I need for abundance in this life. Everything is Him. He has claimed me as His own and I, as a result am pursued, held, and embraced by the perfect, powerful, loving King of heaven and earth and my every moment. There is nothing that can dethrone Him. My sin, my rebellion, my confusion, my unbelief cannot dethrone Him because He is king. What matter of mindset is it that believes that God is so weak that we can remove Him from His rule? Yet so often when I rebel, I think I’ve taken His ownership of my life and thrown it out the window, but He says ALL things work together for good for those who love God. If the word All truly means that by which it is defined then even the bad stuff I choose to do, or the good stuff, or the misguided stuff, the wrong direction stuff, every bit of stuff that I in fact do, works together for my good? Wha?
Irrepressible joy. When life hits you hard, you smile, when everything falls around you, you remain okay, because He’s got you. He HAS YOU! Can it be true? What is faith, but the substance of things hoped for and the conviction of things unseen! When I know how much I am loved, I will know joy.
Irrepressible joy. I want it.
