The Power of Joy

Joy is something that has been given to every believer. Our joy is not dependent upon our circumstances nor the different situations we face.  Our fruit of joy does not depend on people, but our joy is in the Lord, the one who never changes. He never leaves us nor forsake us, Jesus is our JOY. We are told in Philippians, " to Rejoice in the Lord Always"  and again we are told to rejoice. Nehemiah let us know that "the joy of the Lord is our strength". We are never without joy, we just have to start Rejoicing!
