Just think, when you lose your JOY, you lose your STRENGTH! Having JOY is having STRENGTH! And, it takes a lot of spiritual, mental and physical strength to live for God! Maintain JOY and you maintain STRENGTH! And remember, JOY is not HAPPINESS! Happiness is based on our circumstances! If everything is going good, we are HAPPY! But, if things aren’t going well, we aren’t too HAPPY! JOY is a result of knowing JESUS personally! JESUS IS OUR JOY! JOY is an inner spiritual force on the inside of us based on having JESUS in our heart! Say it out loud and keep saying it, “JESUS IS MY JOY!!!”
