JOY

Happiness is generally due to a happening. Happiness therefore can change through the day because good and bad things can happen. Joy on the other hand is not due to happenings as it is a constant fruit of the Spirit. Like all the other gifts of the Spirit this never changes. Our awareness of this may change depending on whether we are walking in the Spirit or walking in the flesh. All the knowledge you need is in Him. He is in you therefore you have acces to all knowledge and wisdom. Knowledge alone cannot achieve anything as it is in a vacuum. It is wisdom that enables you to apply the knowledge. You may know all about cars but it is only if you can drive it, is it of any use. A car in the garage is nice to see but of no use if it cannot move.  It is the application of knowledge that will bring forth results. So also in all spheres of life we need knowledge but more than that the ability to apply the knowledge to bring about change. Many have knowledge but few apply it. Many know the truth but few apply the truth. Many know what is right but fail to do it. We make choices based on our needs and desires. These choices than become habits and these habits become our character. Choose today to apply your good knowledge and live life to the full. Let the joy of the Lord be your strength.
