Everlasting Joy

Luke 4; Isaiah 61

Thank you, Lord Jesus, that your spirit is upon me and dwells in me. Thank you, Holy Spirit, for your living communion with me. You fill me, and you lead me.

You anoint me, and I hear your gospel, and I believe it, and I understand it. Your word has become life, eternal life, in me.

You comfort me, and you heal my broken heart. I was captive to lust and selfishness, and you have proclaimed liberty to me.

I was blind to your fullness and joy, but you opened my eyes, and now, I have my sight. I was bogged down with regret and self centered impatience, and now, you have set me free from my past and from myself.

You show me our father’s perfect timing and faithfulness, and I am content.

I rejoice in you, Lord. My soul is joyful in you, my God. You have clothed me with the garments of salvation. You have covered me with the robe of righteousness. By your grace, everlasting joy is mine. Praise you and thank you.
