In a world full of pain and suffering, joy can seem like a distant dream. But as believers, we have access to a joy that is not dependent on our circumstances. The joy of the Lord is our strength, and it comes from knowing that we are loved by a God who never changes. When we focus on Him, we can experience a joy that transcends our circumstances and gives us the strength to face whatever comes our way. Let us choose to rejoice in the Lord always, for in Him we find the true source of our joy.
