Focus on Joy

How's your joy lately? How are you looking at life? Is it properly in focus? The Apostle Paul warned of three dangers that steal joy from Christians in Colossians 2:16-23. We need to identify these dangers in order to avoid them -- and they are indeed common traps for today's Christians. But taking our eyes OFF the wrong things is not enough, so Paul gives us four positive things ON which to focus so we experience the joy God intended us to have. Joy is not really an emotion. It is the result of a proper spiritual focus. Are you seeing life correctly? This sermon was preached by Pastor Robert Rohlin at First Baptist Church Las Colinas in Irving, TX -- a family integrated Baptist Missionary Association church.
