Jesus Listens: Daily Devotional Prayers of Peace, Joy, and Hope: By: Sarah Young
December 5th,
Cherished Jesus,
You are the Joy that no one can take away from me. As I rest in Your Presence, I savor the wonders of this glorious gift. I rejoice that this blessing is mine forever--You are mine for all eternity!
Many things in this world can bring me pleasure for a while, but they are all passing away due to death and decay. In You I have a matchless Treasure--Joy in the One who is the same yesterday and today and forever. No one can rob me of this pleasure because You are faithful and unchanging.

I realize that whenever i'm feeling joyless, the problem is not in the source of Joy (You) but in the receiver (me). Sometimes I get so focused on other things--difficulties and distractions in my life--that I neglect my relationship with You. Help me remember to put You first in my life, relating to You continually as my First Love. And please increase my moment-by-moment receptivity to Your Presence. As I spend time delighting myself in You, I receive Joy in full measure!
In Your Joyous Name, Amen.
