THE JOY OF KNOWING JESUS

"And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people."

Luke 2:10
King James Version

I found a new hymn I like but there was no author listed "JOY IS NOW IN EVERY PLACE".

"Joy is now in every place, Christmas lightens every face; Now be with us, in Your grace, Bless us, holy Jesus.

May the star that shone that night, Making Your poor stable bright, Fill our hearts with love and light; Hear us, holy Jesus."

Not only is it a privilege to know Jesus, it is also a joy to know Him. Do you know Jesus? You may go to church and worship Him but do you know Him?

To kow someone, we must spend time with that person. How much time do you spend with Jesus? Does He know you love Him?

When is the last time you said to Him "I love You, Jesus"? Have you ever said it to Him? If not you are hurting Him and breaking His heart.

Jesus has feelings and it hurts Him when He is ignored and given last place in our heart and life. May God help all of us to give Jesus the first place He deserves in our heart and in our life. I love You, dear Jesus.
