    Find Joy In Everything You Do

    Contributed by Rich Anderson on Feb 14, 2011
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,497 views

    It has been said that “Joy is the surest sign of the presence of God.” Or it has been said that “Joy is the flag that flies over the castle of our hearts announcing that the King is in residence today!”

    What is your greatest joy? Is there something that continually brings joy to you? Or, if you were to look back over your whole life to determine what brought you the greatest joy, what would it be? I believe that true joy only comes from our Creator. When our earth was formed, it was created to ...read more

    Christians can stink it up just like anyone else. And being around a Christian who is full of pride, anger, and self-righteousness has a pretty bad stink to it. But there is a way to get rid of that smell. There’s a way out of the tomb.

    August 10, 2008 – Do We Stink? The story of Lazarus. (Jesus is our Life) Smell, just one of our five senses; but a very powerful one. Smells can remind us of many things.
