Deu 28:47 Because you did not serve the LORD your God with joyfulness and gladness of heart, because of the abundance of all things,
Deu 28:48 therefore you shall serve your enemies whom the LORD will send against you, in hunger and thirst, in nakedness, and lacking everything. And he will put a yoke of iron on your neck until he has destroyed you.
Today, by grace alone in Christ alone through the Spirit alone:
-- serve God with joyfulness and gladness of heart!
-- preach with joyfulness and gladness of heart!
-- witness with joyfulness and gladness of heart!
