    Joy is a state of happiness when we are in communion with God, which leads to gladness, and delight.

    Our prayer life is a indicator of our reliance upon God. God’s will for each of us is that we so rely on Him that prayer is a spontaneous activity throughout our daily life as individuals and throughout our weekly activities as a church family.
