Shake It UpSample

We hear the word “joy” a lot during the holiday season. The presents, the music, the time off school, the decorations, the celebration of the gift of Jesus to the world—it’s all the stuff that makes Christmas full of joy. But while that’s the stuff that brings us joy, have you ever thought about what brings God joy? God gets the greatest joy out of each one of us! God delights in us. In other words, to God, we’re the thing that makes the Christmas season, and every season, full of joy.
Think about everything you think God might find delightful about you. Then, make it a point to celebrate the things about you that give God great joy.
