Psalm 32:11 (ESV/emphasis added/jaj)...."Be Glad In The Lord, And REJOICE, O Righteous, And Shout For JOY, All you Upright In Heart!

PJP2 PROLOG POST 160916-17 - JOY (BLUF #5) - Proverbs 15:23 (ESV/emphasis added/jaj)...." To Make An Apt Answer Is A JOY to a man, And A WORD In Season, How Good It Is!"....

Isn't this Proverb (Proverb 15:23) so very True?

As I'm Pondering this today, I Hear The Holy Spirit Reminding me of times I would be seeking an answer and Lo/Behold, He would Send someone with Exactly The Answer I'd been looking for!  That person's 'Apt Answer' did indeed Bring JOY to the situation.

For example, have you ever wondered if what you're doing at work really makes a difference to anyone?  I know, especially as I begin winding down my AF-Career, that thought has passed by a few times.

Then, out of seemingly nowhere, you get a message, email, call, some form of contact from a former co-worker, or current co-worker, or perhaps a total stranger - and they relay to you what your actions in the interaction you had with them meant to them, and the impact that activity had on their situation.

All one can say is, "Wow!"....

Or a "WORD in Season".....this phrase always makes me think of Christmas and New Years....I know, of late, there's a lot of 'controversy' regards wishing someone a 'Merry Christmas', not so much on the "Happy New Year", BUT the focus is on employing the Christmas vernacular.

Well, Crew, Being a child of the King, a Believer in our Lord Jesus Christ, and the Jesus is Indeed The Reason for The Season.....seems to be a "WORD in Season".....Merry CHRISTmas seems to be an "Apt Answer", and I know this WORD in Season....Merry CHRISTmas....brings a LOT of God's JOY around the Team Johnson complex.

So, this week, as we roll into the next to last week of September 2016, I'm going to open myself even more to The Holy Spirit, Lord Jesus and God The Father Sharing Their Apt Answers, and WORDS in Season that They Guide me to Share.....We'll see where They Lead us.....

Thus, here is my Prayer for us today.....O Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit, Father God, we Thank You and Praise You for Your Mercy, Love and Grace.  Lord Jesus, Thank You for Your "Apt Answers" that You Ever Give us when we Come To You in Prayer.  Holy Spirit, May Your JOY pour over us, as we Seek You in All our ways.  Father God, as You Shared with Your Prophet Isaiah, as he Recorded such in Isaiah 30:21, May we Too Listen to Your WORD of Wisdom and Guidance as You Said, "And your Ears Shall Hear A WORD Behind you, Saying, 'THIS Is The Way, Walk In IT'....Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit, Father God, we Know You Are Ever With us, even when we turn to the right or when we turn to the left, Thank You for You Are There.  In Your Precious and Holy Name we Pray....Amen and Amen....jaj
