It is not how much we have, but how much we enjoy, that makes happiness. -Spurgeon
Nehemiah 8:10, Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared: for this day is holy unto our Lord: neither be ye sorry; for the joy of the LORD is your strength.
Nehemiah reminded the people that there is joy in serving the Living God. It is also a reminder for you and I to remember the peace we have in the Lord. For us to remember the contentment we have in the Lord. For us to remember there is joy in knowing we are not going to hell! There is abundant joy in knowing I’m going to Heaven when I die!
How about you friend? Do you have that contentment? Do you have that joy? Do you have that abundant joy? If not, you can and it can happen right now! Repent and trust Jesus Christ as Saviour!
