Joy

JOY
Hey Everyone! Today's post is going to be focused towards joy. 

Galatians 5:22
"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such thing there is no law."

Galatians 5:22 states the fruit of the spirit and one of these is joy. God wants us to be joyful! Here are some more scripture references on joy.

Psalms 16:10
"You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy, at your right hand are pleasure forever more."

Romans 5:11
"More than that, we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation."

Philippians 4:4
"Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice!"

You can conclude a lot about joy from these verses. True joy comes from God and salvation. The Lord wants us to be joyful and rejoice in Him. Although being joyful and positive all the time is hard, we should make it our goal to react positively and encouragingly to everyone. We should also remember that God wants us to rejoice in Him. He wants us to be happy and praise Him for all His goodness. We should be thankful that in Him we can truly feel joy. We cannot feel true joy in anything of this world. We can only feel true joy in God, and we can only get to God through salvation and Jesus.
