About 25 years ago, before JOY FM was on the air, I read a verse in Proverbs and wrote this in the margin of my bible: “This is the vision for radio ministry.” Here’s the verse:
“An anxious heart weighs a person down, but a kind word cheers him up.” Proverbs 12:25
Do you know why we’re named “JOY?” Because of this verse. Because joy and kindness change you from the inside out.
We all know someone who is anxious or who has a heavy heart. Maybe you do as well. But we don’t have to live under the weight and anxiety. And for those of us who know Jesus, our kind words can be a bit of joy and life to someone who is struggling.
I hope you feel less anxious every time you listen to JOY FM. And I hope you will be on the lookout today for someone to share some joy with….a kind word….and trust God at His word; that your kind word will bring peace and joy to someone who needs it. – Sandi
