Joy of the Lord is here. It doesn’t leave when things go wrong in our lives, then come back when times are good. Joy is here. It’s here whether we feel joyful or not. Resist the temptation to attach joy to a thing, a place, a person or a status of life. Joy is a spiritual force. The bible calls it our strength.
