GREET ONE ANOTHER WITH JOY!
Romans 8:16 – Devotional
Romans 8:16
“Greet one another with a holy kiss. The churches of Christ greet you.”
During the dark days of disease and pandemic, social distancing has created a sense of isolation and hopelessness. I think this delights Satan and gives him a way to separate us from those who would give us hope in the Lord.
Thank God we live in a time when we can contact each other easily by telephone, e-mail, and numerous gidgets, gadgets, and gizmos. When all else fails we get up off our do nothing and meet in person.
I am thrilled to open my home each week to our small home church. But that is not enough. All throughout the week there is contact between members by means of the devices I have just mentioned.
The device we may use to touch the life of those around us is not the important thing. It is the joy of Jesus that bubbles up within us and gives us the reality that as part of the family of God, we have deep and abiding joy that satisfies the deepest longing within our heart. I want to encourage each of us (me included), to greet one another with joy as often as possible!
May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!
