Where To Find Joy?

by Myra on February 27, 2010

Why do I often lack joy? Why does it sometimes seem like such a mystery?

Because I’m often stubborn, like a wayward sheep.

There is no mystery…

“Thou wilt shew me the path of life:

in Thy presence is fulness of joy;

at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.”

Psalm 16:11

…but just remaining in God’s presence.

Total joy.

Pleasure forever.
