Poochie Lip

WHAT SEASON IS IT?

Joy in God is never out of season. –Henry

These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full. John 15:11

What things was John speaking of when he said, “These things have I spoken unto you”; I believe it may have been God’s love and our obedience. God’s love toward us while we were sinners brought to us joy unspeakable! Our obedience to His Word keeps it close and always in season!

As Christians, we should never walk around with the poochy lip! There should always be a smile on our face and praise on our tongue! Why? Because joy is never out of season!

You got the Poochie Lip Disease?

The Christian life that is joyless is a discredit to God and a disgrace to itself. –Babcock

Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: 1 Peter 1:8

Do you remember the excitement you had on your birthday or Christmas morning? You had been asking for a new bike, new pair of shoes, or that candy bar that you got once a year and all of a sudden—IT WAS THE DAY YOU GOT IT! Can I tell you, every day God gives us here on Earth is like one of those days except better! A pair of shoes will wear out, a bicycle’s tire will go flat, and well that candy bar…. three bites and its gone! But oh Christian friend….The Joy of the Lord is forever! It never wears out! It never goes flat! And it gets sweeter and sweeter as the days go by! Get rid of that poochie lip by tasting and seeing that the Lord is good!
