Finding Eternal Joy

We hear so much about joy and how to cultivate joy in our lives today.  And certainly, there are moments of happiness here that are truly like glimpses of Heaven for sure... but the truth is we need God to sustain us between those temporary moments of happiness and to find joy and peace even in the tough moments of life. So, there are some truths you should know about joy, first it is something that comes from the inside, it isn’t found in anything external.  External things tend to be temporary and that kind of temporary happiness is not sustainable.  Also, life is not really about the pursuit of happiness, it is about cultivating that internal joy and about filling up with that inner spring of joy that will sustain you through all of the external changes in circumstances.  And how do you do that you might ask? Well, that's what this episode is all about and I'm so excited to share it with you. Also, I promised you in this episode to share some additional verses about joy from the Bible that you can go and check out on your own... so here they are: Psalm 4:7, 5:11, 16:11, and 30:5, Isaiah 12:6, 29:19, and 35:10, Luke 1:14, Romans 12:12, Proverbs 10:28, 1 Peter 1:8-9, Philemon 1:7, and Nehemiah 8:10.
