How to Enjoy Life

So many things can rob us from the joy of life, including sickness, sorrow, financial difficulty, and broken relationships. However, through all of these things and many more trials and difficulties, God's love is steadfast and sure. He always has more good gifts for you.

God wants you to enjoy your relationship with Him. Receiving God's everlasting and unconditional love, as well as believing in His goodness, will sustain you through the darkest night of the soul. His love never changes. His goodness never fails. Enjoy God, "the living God, who gives us richly all things to enjoy"(1 Timothy 6:17), and you will enjoy your life.

Our heavenly Father has so many good gifts for you to receive. The greatest of all is the gift of His love. When we receive His love, we are able to love God and others. This great gift of God is received by the Holy Spirit through faith in Jesus Christ. "Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us" (Romans 5:5). 

Sad but true, many reject the love of God and the joy of life. Love will never be forced upon you. Love will seek you and pursue you, but never force its way into your life. So it is with God's love. The joy of life is to know you are loved. God loves you in Christ through the Holy Spirit. Receive God's love and enjoy life.
