Day 25...
The Joy of the Lord is Your Strength
I was reading through my daily devotional today. Everyday Joy for your spiritual refreshment each day finds the simple joy in life no matter
what the circumstance and today was no different.
"This day is sacred to our Lord. Do not grieve,
for the joy of the Lord is your strength." ~Nehemiah 8:10
Is it possible to have joy in the middle of catastrophic circumstances? What if you're facing the loss of a job? A devastating illness? The death of a loved one?
Can you really look beyond your grief to find the joy?
Our very strength comes from the joy God places inside us,
and we need that strength even more
when we're facing seemingly impossible odds!
Today, may God's joy strengthen you from the inside out. ~Janice Hanna
"Everybody needs beauty as well as bread, places to play in and pray in,
where nature may heal
and give strength to body and soul." ~John Muir
