Joy, true joy, does not come from the temporary offerings, pleasures and comforts that this world has to offer. Let’s not look to the world for the basis of our joy. Let’s fix our eyes upon the Lord Jesus Christ and rejoice in Him and His Word. Joy will be found in the Lord and the promises found in His word. Remember- Everything about this world has an expiration date. The Bible says, "The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for ever" (Isaiah 40:8). That is your foundation, that is your basis and that is the very fiber of your heavenly joy during this, your earthly journey...The Word of God endures and our Saviour does not change "Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever" (Hebrews 13:8). That is true joy that will see you through the day.
