Joy Nugget #4: The Joy of Jesus

Since our revelation about God is paramount in Christ, we may learn the most about the joys of God by zeroing in on Christ.

1. Jesus rejoices together with the Father & the Spirit--the whole Trinity rejoices together! (Luke 10:21)
2. Jesus rejoices that His Father has revealed truths about Himself to "little children"--those with humble trust in Him over those who are wise in the world's eyes. (Luke 10:21)
3. Jesus rejoices in the "lost sheep" found. (Luke 15:6-9)
4. Jesus desires deep fellowship in community (Luke 22:15)

How should these delights of Jesus reflect upon our search for joy?
