HANG ON WITH JOY!
Revelation 2:25 – Devotional
Revelation 2:25
“Hold fast to what you have until I come.”
I fondly recall my days of youth when we all looked forward to snow and slick streets. Motorists dreaded these streets then as they still do in our day and age. One of the reasons the young people loved slick streets was hooky-bobbing. The adults frowned upon the practice, but tolerated the practice since they could recall when they did the same thing when they were young.
There were shrieks of laughter as we slid along the snow-packed streets for as long as possible. The ride generally took us only a block or so. Most motorists seemed to enjoy it as much as we did, but there were a few sour souls who vented their spleen on our fun-filled delight!
As I think on it I realize there are many people in today’s world who seem to take offense when the people of God enjoy the joy of their salvation. They seem to feel that the walk with the Lord should be filled with doom and gloom.
I take delight in breaking the bubble of such an attitude. Across the centuries the people of God have been the most joyous people on earth. Even those who have been persecuted have suffered with joy. Regardless of the trials you are going through right now – – HANG ON WITH JOY!
May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!
