    Joy In The Midst Of Heaviness Series

    Contributed by Paul Dayao on Oct 14, 2025
     | 159 views

    This sermon explains the Christian paradox of experiencing profound joy—rooted in our eternal salvation—while simultaneously enduring temporary and purposeful seasons of sorrow and trials.

The presence of one means the absence of the other. The goal of modern life, it seems, is to construct a life so comfortable, so ...read more

    Do you want your joy to be full? I have often wondered why at times I have no joy in prayer or in serving the Lord, it made me think about where my hope is, is it in people,in success or is in the Lord or am I hoping the Lord will answer my prayer the way I want Him to?

    Sometimes God allows things to get difficult so He can produce greater joy in and through and with us. Jesus knew that His Father often used tragedy to cause people to look to heaven for solutions to their problems.

    John 15:11-16 Illustration: A cynic asked an elderly believer who had endured great physical pain for 20 years, "What do you think of your God now?" The godly sufferer replied, "I think of Him more than ever." Sorrow can be the means of bringing us heart-to-heart with God. When repeated strokes ...read more
