I believe there's a pretty sure-fire way to tell if you're doing life right.
It's this...
If you're doing life the way God meant it, you'll have JOY.
Think on that a minute...
If you go about your business as if you're carrying the weight of the world... and you tend to be gloomy, unhappy, OR grumpy... it's a good indicator something is off.
But if you're inclined to come at life with good cheer, delight, humor, wonder, etc... it's a positive sign you're living in sync with God's Spirit.
Because the Spirit produces JOY.
"... the fruit of the Spirit is love, JOY, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control... (Gal.5:22-23).
Living with joy does not mean slap-happy goofy or without care.
And it doesn't mean you're not serious... or don't know how to experience grief or sorrow or discouragement...
... that would be inhuman.
But carrying on with joy does mean you have such a confidence in God -- and what He may be doing in any circumstance -- that you're quick to smile and laugh.
Ponder that with some prayer as you approach what comes your way today.
Joy is a good gauge to measure how we're doing in our walk with God.
'There is nothing better for a person than that he should eat and drink and find enjoyment in his toil' (Ecclesiastes 2:24).
