Fruits Of The Spirit For Students Sample

Have you ever wondered what is the difference between joy and happiness? It can sometimes be super confusing because people mix these two words up all the time. Today we want you to know that true joy is something that comes from God. Happiness is based on a condition or a situation. You feel happy when you get a gift but when it breaks you don’t feel happy anymore. Joy is different. You can experience true joy regardless of your situation.
Challenge: We want to challenge you to think about all the things that make you feel happy. It can be a food, a memory, an electronic or anything else in your life. Then we want you to think about things that bring you joy. Think about the deeper stuff in your life like your relationship with God or your family. Then we want you to take some time to thank God for the things in your life that bring you not just happiness but true joy.
Prayer: Dear God, please help me experience joy today and thank you for all the joy you have given me.
