There are a lot of things in life that can be taken from us in an instant.
Our health.
Our money.
Our relationships.
Our security.
Our strength.
Oh, but honey.
There ain’t nothing gonna steal my joy.
Nothing.
Absolutely nothing.
For his anger is but for a moment, and his favor is for a lifetime. Weeping may tarry for the night, but joy comes with the morning. Psalm 30:5
Every single day I make a choice: to live a life of joy or a life of discouragement.
Yes, there is a time for weeping. The Bible reminds us that there is a time for everything under heaven. You may find yourself in a season of sorrow and trials. It happens to us all.
Tonight I’m here to remind you – JOY is always there. It comes with the morning.
The choice is mine.
I’m choosing joy. It’s way more fantastical. Believe me. Been there, done that. Non-joy is non-fun.
Have you heard this song yet? I didn’t even catch that last line until recently…there ain’t nothing gonna steal my joy!
