Not only is God’s love inspirational but God’s love is powerful. He can and does use His power to transform people.

John 3:16 says that God loved the world so much that he sent his only son (Jesus) to die for us and whoever believes will not die, but have everlasting life.

Jesus came to earth to take on the consequences of everything we ever did wrong so that we could have a relationship with Him! This type of love is sacrificial and life-changing.

But let's be real... none of us are perfect. Even Christians. As you live into your faith more, the inward change will, over time, start to make a difference in outward behavior.

The more you get to know God and his characteristics, the more you take those on.

Being loved and forgiven by God also motivates you to extend this love and kindness to others.

What does it mean to you when you hear the word rejoice?

Some might think it is a state of constant happiness and being able to celebrate every single moment of your life.

There is a huge difference in happiness and joy.

Happiness is an emotion based on circumstances. If everything in life is good with your job, health and family... you'll be happy.

But life isn't always easy... There are bumps along the way, some bigger and tougher than others.

Joy is not rooted in anything of this world, but in our eternal relationship with God. This means that, not if, but when we hear bad news, we are able to find joy in the midst of sadness and pain because God is still working.

As Christians, even in the darkest of times, we know where our joy is rooted in.

We can find a reason to rejoice because God is not fleeting.

He will not abandon us in the midst of the storms of life.

He provides peace and hope for all. He gives us a reason to rejoice.
