Messy Christianity – Overwhelming Joy
Joy in Adolescence (8), Perspectives
Verse April 23, 2017
Pastor Todd Harker
Scripture Emphasis:
Psalm 47:1 “Clap your hands, all you nations; shout to God with cries of joy.”
There is a very old song that says, “Praise Him in the morning when you see the sun arising…Praising Him in the evening cause He took you through the day…and in the in between when you feel the pressure burning tell Him that you love Him cause He promises to stay.” Another internal joy inhibiter is stingy praise. It truly impacts us in many ways.
When I am Stingy in my Praise….
