What things do you seek out of life?


What do you seek from life? What is important to you? Do you strive for things to bring you joy, or to bring joy and peace of the lord to others? or what? would love to hear from you. gods continued blessings. David

No!! I don't need things to bring me joy. Not at all!! Honestly, what I need are relationships with others. That is one thing that I don't think I could do without. It's very important to me to build solid friendships with others so that I can maybe make a difference sometime in their life. That is my goal I guess. I heard a quote this week, "You might be the only bible someone reads" and I thought that very profound and true. I want to be a reflection of God in all I do. No matter what it is.

Great post. I do not think we can have joy without sharing it with others.

For me, the most important thing would be to have God's all ecompassing peace, and secondly, that my life will honor our Lord.

Joy is a by product of a happy life, but also a choice. You choose to be happy or not. Sometimes it is easy when things go well, but a choice when things go not so well.

Hi there, just had to pop in to say hi.

Oh Thats awesome! Yes, we do have joy, and peace, only if we except his grace and the joy and peace we have through him. it is our free gift from him, which way to manytimes we dont live in what we have or except what he has given us. awesome, thank you so much for sharing. Gods Continued Blessings. David

I personally think Joy is Grace and comes from having a loving relationship with our Lord Jesus Christ. It is from this relationship that we have with God that determines how we touch other people's lives. Their "Joy" must come from Him and Him only.

May God Bless You in ABUNDANCE

For years, I prayed for the security and peace that can only come from Him. Although I struggle from time to time, I have the security and I can still feel His peace amidst the chaos. I would love to serve Him through my writing in a way that would allow me to do it full time.

I also pray for my son's relationship with Christ. I know that I know that I know that I am in the palm of His hand but sometimes I am not so sure about my son. It is my child who is my first mission field and he is the one who I am most concerned.

You know, i feel for you about your son. i myself have had to put my son in the lords because i have been taken out of his life(a long story) but the lord is faithful. If he knows the Lord, then leave him in the lords hands and trust your son and trust the Lord with him. he will make mistakes but they may not be mistakes either so just love him unconditionally and trust god to guide and mold him into who God desires him to be. He will be fine. I am sure of it. gods continued blessings. david

Joy to me is seeing that God answers prayers finally after years of seeing a Christian brother grieve and cry daily with me online when his soul mate wife passed away suddenly. Praying and listening to his heartbreak trusting God to keep him going when daily he wanted to take his life. Now as we speak God has healed his broken heart and he has a fresh new hope for his life. Grief takes different times for different people, and sometimes I wondered if my freind would ever recover. God is truly a healer of the broken hearted.
