Luke 15:10
In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.”

Shalom sdr, my devotion today, Aug. 29, REJOICE (Lk. 15:10). What is the thing that can make us rejoice? For many people, they rejoice when they themselves get something. They get money, gifts, stuffs. Seldom, man is happy when he sees other man get fortune. Moreover, if he sees other man get salvation. People can be killed if they believe in Jesus lately. Especially, in the certain countries. It is exactly the same feeling as the older brother here in the story. He didn’t feel happy, when his younger brother come back home. He didn’t feel happy together with the father, the brother and everybody in the house. The key is that, he didn’t feel happy for other people’s happiness. Do we feel happy for other people’s happiness? Do we do something to make other people happy? Do we work extra hard to bring salvation to other people? It’s God who has started to do something to make us happy. And when we are saved, the entire heaven feel the great rejoice. Now, it’s our turn to make other people happy. Are we ready? (ASH)
