When I Don't Desire God by John Piper

I am currently reading a book that is When I Don't Desire God: How to Fight for Joy by John Piper. I have learn so much about how to fight for Joy as I am reading his book. It is full of biblical reasons as he had listed in his book, why we, believers need to fight for Joy in Christ. This is at sake!

I would encourage you all to read his book. I am so thankful for this book, and it is hard for me to put the book down. I haven't finish reading his book yet.

As I have seen other believer for Christ and myself, are like a walking zombie and not seeing His glory and not enjoying Him with Joy. We all do need to preach the gospel to ourselves and fight for the joy of knowing Him as our Personal Lord and Savior, and enjoying His glory that is being display in everywhere we go, and also enjoying the message of the gospel as we are eating His Word or hearing the pastor preaching His Word.

Are you delighting or eating in His Word with joy?
Are you delighting in His Glory with joy?
Are you so thankful for the Cross with joy?
This list can go on.

Indeed, I count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. For his sake I have suffered the loss of all things and count them as rubbish, in order that I may gain Christ Philippians 3:8 ESV

to live is Christ, and to die is gain. Philippians 1:21 ESV

Main thing that I don't know how to write a book review for this. There are so much to tell you. But I do want you all to read his book.

Anonymous: Thank you for this wonderful book! May the Lord Bless you always!
