We reflect on joy as a spiritual strength that does not deny pain but anchors us in God’s nearness and goodness. Scripture, history, and simple habits show how joy steadies hearts, reshapes perspective, and even changes the atmosphere around us.
• joy as strength rooted in God, not circumstances
• Paul and Silas singing in suffering as a model of holy joy
• Brother Lawrence practicing God’s presence in ordinary tasks
• three habits for cultivating joy each day
• worship as a reset when discouragement creeps in
• sharing joy through encouragement and small acts of kindness
• closing prayer for joy to overflow in word and action
Lord, thank you for the gift of joy that lifts and strengthens my heart. Help me see your goodness in everyday moments and anchor my joy in who you are. Let your joy overflow in my words, actions, and spirit today. Amen.
