Proverbs 17:22 (NKJV) 22 A merry heart does good, like medicine, But a broken spirit dries the bones.
The human body can be observed like a book, that tells the story by its cover, emotions are observed outwardly in most people, while only some are hidden to the eye. Laughter is seen as health and sadness an indication of internal conflict, the truth about our lives is most often observable and repairable. How do we fix a broken spirit, I am so glad you asked.
The Word of God identifies the vey heart of the problem, we are governed internally and externally by the emotions that well up inside us. Is that scientific and medically accurate, well medicine is discovering that those who are shown love during sickness heal faster than those who are just patients. Read Ecclesiastes 2:24,25 "who can eat and who can enjoy life apart from Him," our health physically and spiritually is directly related to how we have embraced God.
Joy is an emotion that is healing, however it is only temporary, unless you have met the author of joy. Jesus says in, John 15:11 (NKJV) 11 These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full. He the Son of God offers complete well being if, we really hear His Word, that is, accept the Word, embrace the Word, and maintain the Word. This is done by receiving Jesus into the heart, confessing sin, repenting, and asking Him to be the new center of your life. Will you be joyful, only if you know Him!
Heavenly Father Your Word is clearly the reason for joy, Jesus came to give us eternal life, I am a treasure, that You gave your life for, thank You for dying for me. Let me now live for You that others may see You and rejoice.
