DEUTERONOMY 16:14-15 Be joyful at your festival—you, your sons and daughters, your male and female servants, and the Levites, the foreigners, the fatherless and the widows who live in your towns. For seven days celebrate the festival to the LORD your God at the place the LORD will choose. For the LORD your God will bless you in all your harvest and in all the work of your hands, and your joy will be complete.

JOHN 10:10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.

God & Happiness Faith & Parties Jesus & Joy

SONJA LYUBOMIRSKY Happiness Researcher I don’t have a religious or spiritual bone in my body. But the studies clearly show that religious people are happier. …by all means, practice religion!

JOHN 17:3 Now this is eternal life— that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you sent.

JOHN 10:10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.

JOHN 17:20 I am praying not only for these disciples but also for all who will ever believe in me through their message.

JOHN 17:21 I pray that they will all be one, just as you and I are one— as you are in me, Father, and I am in you. And may they be in us so that the world will believe you sent me…

JOHN 17:23 I am in them and you are in me. May they experience such perfect unity that the world will know that you sent me and that you love them as much as you love me. I am in them and you are in me. May they experience such perfect unity that the world will know that you sent me and that you love them as much as you love me.

unity uniformity unity ≠ uniformity

GALATIANS 3:27-28 For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female for all of you are one in Christ Jesus.

JESUS BORROWS THINGS… …loaves & fish …boat…donkey…tomb

when God wants to do something, he almost always invites us into partnership for his purposes in our lives & the world.

JOHN WESLEY God does nothing in this world except in response to the prayers of his people.

Do you take your responsibility & privilege to pray seriously ?

1 CORINTHIANS 3:9 We are co-workers belonging to God. You are God’s field, God’s building.

A life of calling / purpose God invites us to partner with Him

If you can’t celebrate being used by God to bless someone being used by God to bring something of his love or justice or healing into the world, then nothing will make you excited.

Our hearts ache, but we always have joy.
