LASTING JOY
Heart-deep God-given joy is the goal. It doesn’t depend on anything or anyone except God’s presence in your life. Trusting in His goodness, relying on His kindness, and resting in His love provides this deep joy. What could ever take away this joy? When undergoing the hardships and trials of this life, lean on God’s strength and be joyful because He knows, understands and cares about you, his child. Remember that this heart-deep joy goes hand in hand in times of trouble when you make God part of the picture.
Galatians 5:22
1 Peter 1:8-9
2 Corinthians 4:17-18
Weekly Prayer
Dear God,
the joy You give, not matter the circumstances, is never-ending and extraordinary and amazing. It is a constant source of strength in my life. I cannot imagine my life without You! Even when the troubles of the day some my way, let Your joy shine bright in my thoughts and attitudes. I know this life is only temporary and so are its trials and troubles because You, my Lord and Savior, have a perfect eternity waiting for me. A perfect eternity that You died to provide for me. Help me remember this joy is mine forever.
AMEN
