Christian Devotional – May 20, 2014

Read 1 John 1

VERSE:

1 John 1:4–We write this to make our joy complete.

TRUTH:

How do we have joy and experience complete joy? We experience complete joy when we share with others our experience with Jesus Christ. He is the source of all joy and as we share together with other believers, we experience, not just fellowship, but full and complete joy. Are we experiencing joy in our daily life? If not, then we must not be experiencing true fellowship with other believers and sharing about Christ in our lives? Find someone to share with and watch your joy be made complete.

RESPONSE:

Father, You are joy and You bestow Your joy on Your children. As I focus on You, I see that joy more completely and experiencing it more fully. Help me to identify opportunities today to share so that I may experience Your complete joy.
