The things we try to avoid and fight against— tribulation, suffering, and persecution— are the very things that produce abundant joy in us. "We are more than conquerors through Him" "in all these things"; not in spite of them, but in the midst of them. A saint doesn’t know the joy of the Lord in spite of tribulation, but because of it. Paul said, "I am exceedingly joyful in all our tribulation" ( 2 Corinthians 7:4 ).

I can't Think of Anything that would Be More Wonderful than to have Such God-Given Joy Every Moment! Joy Overflowing, Pointing Others to Jesus Christ!

The Good man Does Not Escape his Troubles; he has them too. But the Lord Helps him in Each and Every One! (Ps.34:19)

I will Praise the Lord No Matter what Happens. Let us Praise the Lord Together, and Exalt His Name! (Ps.34:1,3)

Our God Bless us with His Divinely-Produced Joy, is my Prayer!

Thank you so much, Kitty Mittens! Praising Him together with all of you is great joy indeed, no matter what else happens!

Great is the Lord and greatly to be praised!
