The Greatest Joy
Joy is Like Gold Treasure
It is Precious. It is highly Valued.
So people goes around trying to find
The joy that can give them satisfaction.
They will do everything to find it
to fill
in
the emptiness
inside their hearts.
And The World have tried to fill that
Emptiness by trying to offer
the most pleasurable things.
Money, Fame,
,Luxurious Cars And Houses
Beautiful cloths, Bags and shoes,
Traveling around the World ,
Partying and drinking,
having girlfriend or boyfriend
sexualIntimacy, and love.
And the World says
Follow your heart
These are the treasures
that you should have
Coz if you don't have it
you cannot live your life to the Fullest,
these treasures that i offer
will give you Satisfaction,
will give you power,
Will give you joy.
One day
I felt this emptiness inside my heart
So I had looked
For these treasures
And just like everyone else
I"d hope to see
These great pleasure
I'd been looking for it
I'd been searching for it
I'd been craving for it
I'd been doing everything to find it
But
While I was looking
While I was searching
While I was Craving
While I was doing everything to find
those treasures.
Someone told me about a man
His name is Jesus
I know him already
but I wasnt really aware
Of his presence
I know his Name
but i'd never bother to go to him
And know him better
I had heard his voice
but I'd never listen
He was always near
but i was far away
My family was close to him
Except for me.
They labeled him as their
Savior
They call him the redeemer
They call him their Master
They call him their Healer
They call him the Sinless
Yet He died for all our sins.
They call him the son of the living God
They Call Him Jesus the Christ
The Messiah
The Chosen One
I had been busy looking for World treasures
But I got this piece of book called Holy Bible
I got no interest of reading it
but someone pushed Me to open it.
At first I couldn't understand what I was reading
But as ld continue reading , I was like digging
I was going deeper and While digging by reading
I'd stopped
And realiZed
I had found the real Treasure.
These treasure are Golden Truths
And These truths hit me like rocks.
This Jesus Died on The Cross
For the sake of me
For the sake of you.
He was bruise and wounded for
All our sins
He nailed on the cross
And paid all the Cost
He came for us
To save us from eternal damnation
To give Us hope for the eternal salvation
To give us Peace that no one can give
To give Us that greatest joy that Satisfy Our Soul
To show his love for us though we are sinners.
To show forgiveness that we don't deserve.
For God so love
The world that he gave his only begotten
Son And Who ever believes in him will not perish
But will have everlasting life.
I was busy looking for World treasures
Coz I thought thOSe things
will guarantee my
Greatest Joy
But when I got to know Jesus
I've found more
than I was looking for.
Jesus is more than Golds
That the World tries to Offer.
He is my greatest Joy
So now I will no longer chase them
Coz I already found my real treasure
That is In His presence together with Him
In Heaven.
I no longer find my worth by World Standard
They no longer define my identity
Doesnt matter if I don't have what they have
The most important thing I got Jesus
And doing his will for my life
And that's enough for me to have that greatest Joy
In my heart .
