Joy is a sign of the Spirit's presence. [1] It was in Jesus' day, and it is in our day. For Jesus, the basis of this joy included God's plan to reveal his truth, grace, and hope to the childlike - not to those the world classifies as wise and clever. Understanding of God's truth is very much like spiritual joy; it is a gift from the Spirit's work in our lives. [2]
What Jesus Did! is a series of one-year devotional guides through each gospel, using one short scripture passage each day and following the Gospel in sequential order. Each devotional consists of a scripture passage and a reflection and a prayer which open up the day's scripture and show how it challenges you to live for Jesus.
What Jesus Did! is written by Phil Ware and is available in book form.
