The Gift of Joy

Only foolish folks say money cannot buy happiness. Happiness depends on happenings. And money can make things happen. In fact, Ecclesiastes 10:19 says “money is the answer for everything”. It is joy that money cannot buy. Joy is a fruit of The Spirit. You cannot buy the fruit of The Spirit. When Simon attempted to buy it, Peter rebuked him thus “may your money perish with you, because you thought you could buy the gift of God with money!”-Acts 8:20.  “The Fruit of The Spirit is love, JOY, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness”-Galatians 5:22. It is a gift from God that does not depend on happenings thus Isaiah witnessed of God thus “You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on you”-Isaiah 26:3.
