Psa 118:24 “This is the day the Lord hath made; we will rejoice
and be glad in it.”
Joy is not in things, it is in us… “If you have no joy there’s
a leak in your Christianity somewhere.”
Our ability to find joy in every day is not because life is
good, but because God is. And nor is joy in the absence of suffering, but in
the presence of God and knowing that suffering produces endurance (Rom 5:3).
The source of our joy should be situated in our salvation
(Psa 51:12 “Restore unto me they joy of thy salvation”), thus making it a privilege
and duty to “rejoice in the Lord always
and again I say rejoice“(Phl 4:4)
Joy is in the journey that leads us to the end of ourselves
and into the beginning of God!
