A Better Reason To Rejoice

Christian joy ought not to be dependent on how well our work for the Lord seems to go, but rather on the truth that our names are permanently written in heaven! A difficult or fruitless time of life cannot rob us of joy when our joy is rooted in this better reason to rejoice. Our names are written in heaven on the most discouraging days of life as much as they are on the most encouraging! It is this kind of gospel rejoicing that sustains Christ’s disciples through all the ups & downs of the Christian life.
