Jeremiah 15:16 (NKJV) 16 Your words were found, and I ate them, And Your word was to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart; For I am called by Your name, O LORD God of hosts.
On the plane a child laughed and the emotion was contagious, it was caught by many around me and they laughed as well. What makes joy so infecting, I am so glad you asked?
We find pleasure in many things but real joy comes only from a heart that is in dwelt by God. We do hunger for real things emotionally, when you have tasted artificial it repels us, unless we have forced ourselves to accept it. That may be the reason so many cannot receive God into their live, we have grown accustomed to false pleasures and artificial relationships.
Jesus say He is the way, do you believe that, then show him your heart and He will enter you with a joy you have never experienced. Confess you sins of independence and self serving, acknowledge Jesus is the only way to eternity, and ask Him to enter your life that He may use you for His joy. Find His Words and eat them for yourself and experience real joy.
Heavenly Father my we enjoy your word the same way Jeremiah did let us eat and be satisfied with who You are and what you want us to be. Amen
