Joy

For His anger is but for a moment, His favor is for life; Weeping may endure for a night, But joy comes in the morning.  Psa 30:5

I love the word joy – it brings with it a sense of peace and well-being deep deep down inside my soul where the cares and distractions of life can not touch it or take it from me.  It’s always there, always available, always present.  It is His joy that abides within me and it is His joy that is my strength.  My response to this amazing gift is to praise the One who brings it, with a heart full of thanksgiving – for even in the darkest times, I am truly blessed.
