The Joy of the Lord


Sad times come and go - just like happiness comes and goes. Both sadness and happiness seem subject to the winds of change. Not so with JOY. The ongoing abiding presence of our beloved Lord Jesus keeps the believer encompassed by an inner joy in knowing Him, and knowing He is in control and has our backs. Can you be sad and joyful at the same time? Absolutely! This seeming paradox is made simple by knowing and trusting in Jesus Christ Who dwells within the hearts of believers.

Thank You, Jesus, for never leaving nor forsaking us. You are always present - even in sad and hard times. It is Your presence and the joy in knowing You that gets us through when life is rough. May all glory be Yours. Amen.
