JoySample
Joy is a fundamental part of the Christian faith. And your joy grows through encountering God and meditating on His Word. The following verses, when memorized, can help to increase the joy in your life! Let your life be transformed by memorizing scripture.
When you read "Man Says", think, "These are the wrong ways to think or act." and be reminded Satan also lies to us. When you read "God Says," know the Word of God has answers for you. You're reading a paraphrase of the verse, IE. Psalm 126:5
Psalm 126:5 Man says: Real men don't cry. God says: Men dedicated to God have no issue with shedding tears.
Proverbs 15:13 Man says: I may not look happy, but I am. God says: Happy people look happy.
Jeremiah 15:16 Man says: I cannot comprehend why Christians are so devoted to the Bible. God says: The Bible gives Christians JOY. It's like dessert.
Luke 10:20 Man says: The Bible wouldn't actually promise I could know I was going to heaven. God says: Your name will be recorded in heaven.
Job 8:21 Man says: I feel like I'll never see happiness again. God says: God can replace sadness with joy.
