Thinking about Joy


It is almost the end of the week and
here today I connected some thoughts
about the Lord. He is yearning to pour
His joy upon us. Joy that is mingled with
grace and love. So in prayer , we are to
expect Him to love us deeply in the answer.
Within that answer is a deep view of the
Gospel covering all of life, never wasting
anything and always screaming as though
the stones would cry out
They will.

Luke 19:37-40

37As soon as He was approaching, near the descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole crowd of the disciples began to praise God joyfully with a loud voice for all the miracles which they had seen, 38shouting:
BLESSED IS THE KING WHO COMES IN THE NAME OF THE LORD;
Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!"

39Some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to Him, "Teacher, rebuke Your disciples."

40But Jesus answered, "I tell you, if these become silent, the stones will cry out!"
