The Joy of the Lord is Our Strength
Joy is a gift from God, as He dwells in our heart. Satan would like to take our joy away by throwing in our life's problems. He knows the joy of the Lord is our strength. So when problems come our way, run to the shelter of His arms of Jesus. I will start praising Him. Many times I put on Gospel music, that is when His Holy spirit comes and lifts me up. Sometimes an encouraging word would come, or a song, or someone would call with a word of the Lord. He is there all the time taking care of us. One song that has always encouraged me has the lyrics, “Because He lives I can face tomorrow, because He holds the future in His hand.” It is so true.
Thank you for taking the time to read my blog, I love you all in the Lord.
