Joy is a choice part 2

Phil 4:1-11
Christians should be marked with joy more so than anyone else in the world.

Joy is a choice
Deutronomy 28:47
We think joy is a result and not a choice. Joy is something that you learn as Paul has learned.

Think about your prayer life. How much do spend to change the outside, than changing inside of us.
You can't control the outside but you can control the inside. You can't stop situations, people, life stuff bumping, hitting, attacking you. Changing jobs, wives, house, car will not stop the bumps from coming. But, you can control what comes out of you!

Phil 4:6-7
2 Cor 4:17-18 Paul's affliction was light and momentary. This is nothing compared to the Glory of God that awaits us in heaven.
Have an eternal perspective!
Phil 4:8

To work on time

I had the intention of leaving to work on time this morning, but I left late because the freezing rain last night froze my door shut, and windows required heavy scraping. I was able to get in the car after some prying, and scraped a "hole" big enough to see ahead of me through the windshield (not best practice). After asking the Lord for help in getting to work on time, I arrived safely, and with a minute to spare :) Praise God!
