A Cheerful Countenance

“To you first, God, having raised up His Servant Jesus, sent Him to bless you, in turning away every one of you from your iniquities.” [1]

Jesus Christ is able and willing to turn us who turn to Him from sin. What's more, He replaces destructive, deceiving, and defrauding ways with constructive, commendable, and charitable ways.

“A merry heart makes a cheerful countenance, but by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken.” [2]

Jesus Christ fills our heart until overflowing with love, joy, and peace. No one can help us to cope with and overcome the miseries of this evil world like Jesus does.

“Yes, Lord Jesus, we give to You our sins and ask You to forgive us, and to give to us Your blessings that yield glory to You and love to those around us. It is Your Name, Jesus, that I pray. Amen.”

[1] Acts 3:26
[2] Proverbs 15:13
