Joy -- It's literally my middle name. It's my mom's middle name and my daughters middle name! You would think Joy would be well understood and come easily to me.
Not--so--much.
I have so many questions about Joy.
What is joy, really?
Where does it come from?
Why does it disappear so quickly?
Why is it so easy to lose and so hard to keep?"
And on and on...
Am I alone in this? Do you struggle with finding and holding onto Joy too?
I am thinking that because it is SO prevalent in Scripture it must be a natural and important part of the character of God and God's people. It's even a fruit of the Spirit. (Galatians 5)
And if it reflects God and is important to the child of God, it will be a TARGET of Satan.
I have decided that this critically important, yet illusive reflection of God and target of the enemy needs my focused attention. I am RESOLVED to absorb my heart and mind in joy through my study of Scriptures in the coming weeks, perhaps months.
Yours too? Then let's dig in together.
Using One Voice methods, I will be sharing what I learn about joy right here in this space. Would you like to join me on this Journey For Joy?
