I express the spiritual gift of joy.
Happiness
can come into my life from the world around me. People, places, events,
opportunities—these things and many more make me happy. And that’s a
good thing! Yet joy is different. Such a small word with a
sometimes complicated explanation. It’s an essential part of who I AM—a
spiritual quality that remains unaffected by the corporeal realm. In
challenging moments, joy lingers, helping soothe my soul. Like all the
spiritual qualities that define my Christ Presence, I feel it most
powerfully when I freely share it with others. When I connect with the eternal substance of joy, I find the strength of Spirit to face external events or situations.
Then
he said to them, “... This day is holy to our Lord; and do not be
grieved, for the joy of the Lord is your strength.”—Nehemiah 8:10
