“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life, and the life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.”‭‭John‬ ‭1:1-5‬ ‭ESV‬‬

All,
This stands out because John says ,”In him was life, and the life was the light of men.” Jesus is life! During times of temptation, I try to remind myself that joy is a fruit of the Spirit and can only come from God. I may be able to get “short-term happiness” without God, but joy only comes from God. Christ is life and we can fool ourselves that we are “living” without Him, but, in my case, I just didn’t know what I didn’t know. Please pray that we and our friends receive the life that only God can provide. Please pray for the Buckhead social this Thursday at Capital city from 5:30-7:00pm.
