A Joy-Full Life

Paul wrote to the men of his small group,

Before I knew everyone in this group, I was trapped inside a cage that Satan had locked me in because I believed the lies he led me to believe. You all have helped me see my life as it really was.

You created a safe place for me to be honest and vulnerable. I was alone, lonely and hopeless dwelling on my past.

God made us to be part of a community for this very reason that applies to all of us:

“A man who isolates himself seeks his own desires; he rages against all wise judgment.” — Proverbs 18:1. 

This verse describes exactly where I was. God placed me in this group of wise men who brought the keys to my jail cell, and with the help of the Holy Spirit, set me free! 

It has been amazing to see God’s work in all of you: healed marriages and strength to resist temptations of the flesh and live a holy life as God commands us in 1 Peter 1:15. 
“(B)ut as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct”. 
There is so much joy in my life now; my life is not only full, but joy-full. This joy is only a taste of what waits for us in eternity. Thank you all for allowing me to be a part of your lives and being a part of the greatest spiritual growth spurt of my Christian life. I love you all so much!
