Written by Ana Wright, a student and writer.
The joy that God brings us is different. It does not come from whatever circumstances we may be in but through our faith and hope in Christ. We can have comfort in knowing that we are in his presence through every obstacle and triumph we experience. His presence and peace give us strength and security as he anchors our souls through life’s tribulations. The joy that he gives us is far greater than the joy we could ever receive from the world. God’s presence is experienced through your heart. No matter where we may turn or which road we follow, he is there. Living in God’s presence isn’t reserved for special moments or specific places. The joy within God’s presence is true and lasting. In times when you may forget or be distracted, remember, reflect, and give thanks to God for always being there with us.
You make known to me the path of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand. [ Psalm 16:11]
