TODAY'S DEVOTIONAL

Prayer: After Easter, Dear Lord, we are dancing in our hearts because Jesus is alive!

Joyous Dancing

Scripture: You have turned my mourning into joyful dancing. You have taken away my clothes of mourning and clothed me with joy. Psalm 30:11 NLT

What difficulties have your attention just now?

May I suggest an alternative to occupy your thoughts and plans? I suggest you dance for joy just now! The things that should cause us to mourn have truly been removed from us who 'love the Lord and are called according to His purposes '(Rom. 8:28).

If the past has shamed you, if your actions have disappointed you and others and therefore embarrassed you, if your hopes and expectations have been dashed against the rocks of a recent storm in your life, then I invite you to open your mind and heart to the Lord and request that He fill you with HIS joy.

Try it. See if He doesn't do as He promised and clothe you with joy. Let this day be a joyous one because our God loves you. Nothing could be greater than this!
