Inner Joy

Inner Joy

Once, when I was taking a morning walk, I heard, a small sparrow chirping in the mango tree. It was very joyful, for the beautiful morning, and could be seen flying from one branch to another. Few other sparrows joined it, and the chirping grew louder; as if they were giving thanks to God. Suddenly, I started thinking, why can’t I be like these birds, with no tensions and worry of the future but; having tremendous Inner joy.  

There are birds and animals, that teach us important spiritual lessons. One of which is a sparrow. It is such an ordinary cute looking, little bird. It’s always chirping cheerfully, not worrying about anything.

 Even God tells us in scriptures “Therefore, I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow, nor reap, nor gather into barns, and yet; your heavenly Father, feeds them.

God wants us, to have that great joy and pleasure in every season, in every moment, and every circumstance. Even though, we sometimes face challenges in our lives due to our health problem or, family problems or, job related problems, let it be any stuff; trust God and be joyful. Show the people your attitude of joy and happiness amidst all your circumstances they too will glorify God seeing the inner joy in you. God's plan for you is that, you have joy, but not ordinary joy, constant joy, conspicuous joy, contagious joy.Ultimately Joy is one of the fruits of spirit. So friends, hope you all may be filled with this great joy in the days to come.
