JOY - DEVOTION 1 - JOY IN GOD’S GOODNESS
For our last three devotions, we are going to practise 'joy'. Try to take some time this week to lift your eyes from the things in front of you and remind yourself that God is good and that we can always rejoice in Him. We’ll be grabbing our cameras (or phones), stepping away from our studies for a moment, and going outside.
REFLECTION
Read Psalm 19:1-2. God shows us his goodness through the skies above us. Throughout history, when Christians have looked at the sky, they have been amazed at how great and wonderful the God who made it is. We can be joyful, because the God who made all of these wonderful things also made us.
APPLICATION
Go outside with your camera and look up. Take a picture which captures the beauty of the sky, maybe clouds, a sunrise, or the stars at night. Rejoice in the wonder of the world that God has made.
PRAYER
God, I rejoice in the beauty of creation. You are great and mighty, and your fingerprints are all around me. Help me to find joy in the wonders you have made.
Scripture
