Weeeeeeelllll I obviously have SOOOOOO much to be thankful for buuuuut today, the one thing that I really, really, REALLY want to thank God for is for HAPPINESS!!! Really for JOY!!! For God's JOY!!! The world will try and fool you in to believing that they are happy...
Buuuuuuuuuuuuut DON"T Let this world FOOL YOU!!!
Real joy comes from KNOWING JESUS!!! I remember in college, before I dropped out, I stood in front of my class and gave my autobiography and I told my class, THE BEST DAY OF MY LIFE, was the day I got THE HOLY GHOST!!! I said that I obeyed Acts 2:38, I read them the scripture and they just STARED AT ME a few snickered, I said, I know it may sound weird to you all, but when I'm sad and when I go through hard times, I don't have to turn to beer, drugs or counselors!!!
.
I'll never forget as long as I live, the night I got the Holy Ghost, I stood in my mom's room and I told her, "MOM, I can't fall asleep tonight, I'm JUST SOOOOO HAPPPPPPY!!!" I was 6-years-old then, and I'm 31 now, buuuuuuuuut i'm still, just SOOOOO HAPPY!!!" The night I got the Holy Ghost is STILL the best day of my life!!!
That was the night...
I GOT JOY!!!
Yes, this Thanksgiving, I want to give God a special Thank you for giving me JOY!!! Thank you Jesus for this beautiful, precious gift!!!
"The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him." (Psalm 28:7)
