Working with my youth in church tell me a few things, but there's one thing that had struck me over and over again as we was practicing for the skit. It came to a part where there was a Christian and a non-Christian having a conversation (note that our practice conversation was in impromtu) ,"Why don't you go to church . It's fun and the people the are fun and lively too !"said the Christian. "No lar, the Cyber ( cafe ) is more fun lar,"replied the non-Christian, who was played by David to impersonate a real non-believer. It struck-I cou;dn't argue with that. Sometimes, people in church give the impression that we're either not interested or a solemn look always seem to mask ours(including myself)..
In Galatians, Paul writes and shows us the Fruit of the Spirit - JOY is one of 'em. Christians, especially my fellow youth, stand up and show yourself full of joy. Joy is not happiness, neither is happinass joy. Joy is something too deep that even non-Christians cannot experience. That is why it's a fruit only when you have the SPIRIT !! If you can only have happiness and not joy than you would not seem different from those outside. So release your care and burdens on Jesus for He cares for you !! - that your joy may be full !!!
I cast all my cares upon You
I lay all of my burdens
down at Your feet
at any time I don't know
What to do
I will cast all my cares upon you
-JOY-
God bless, y'all !!
