My wife and I like the fresh bread from the deli at Wall-Mart. It is only a dollar and tastes so much better. It is so much healthier because it doesn’t have all of those preservatives in it. But because the bread doesn’t have preservatives in it, it only lasts a couple of days before it spoils. Hey, bread isn’t the only thing that spoils. When we drift away from the dear Lord, we lose our joy. Our attitudes spoil. The prophet Joel said in Joel 1:12, “The vine is dried up, and the fig tree languisheth; the pomegranate tree, the palm tree also, and the apple tree, even all the trees of the field, are withered: because joy is withered away from the sons of men.” Have you lost the joy in life? Are you just going through the motions of living? Then get back to God. Get back to reading the Bible. Get back to where you lost your joy and find it again. You’ll be glad that you did.
