The Joy of the Lord
from Devotions with Pastor Stanton · host Stanton Petersen
When you feel weak, where do you turn for strength? Many of us look to self-reliance, positive thinking, or maybe just another cup of coffee. We think of strength as something we have to muster up from within. But the Bible presents a radical alternative. It suggests that one of the most powerful sources of strength available to us is something we might not expect: joy. Not just happiness based on good circumstances, but a deep, resilient joy that comes from God Himself.
