Qué es el gozo? Podemos recibir momentos fugaces cuando vemos la luz del sol atravesar las nubes, o ver a un niño pequeño reír mientras sopla la pelusa de un diente de león gastado. Pero solo hay una fuente de gozo verdadero y duradero, y ese es nuestro Salvador, Jesús.
Durante una temporada de incógnitas, Dios abrió Su Palabra a la autora Gina L. Smith y le enseñó Su definición de gozo para que pudiera experimentarlo en lo profundo de su corazón. Él la ayudó a darse cuenta de que había estado encontrando gozo en Sus bendiciones, en lugar de en Él, la fuente de esas bendiciones. Y aprendió a "tenerlo por sumo gozo" (Santiago 1:2) pase lo que pase.
What is joy? We can receive fleeting moments of it when we watch sunlight break through the clouds, or see a little child laugh as he blows apart the fluff of a spent dandelion. But there is only one source of true, lasting joy, and that's our Savior, Jesus.
During a season of unknowns, God opened His Word to author Gina L. Smith and taught her His definition of joy so that she could experience it deep in her heart. He helped her realize that she had been finding joy in His blessings, rather than in Him, the source of those blessings. And she learned how to "count it all joy" (James 1:2) come what may.
Everyday Prayers for Joy is a thirty-day journey through God's Word that will help you discover the joy that God wants to share with you. He is with you always and can work out all things for good. Fill yourself to overflowing with God's joy!
