Joy in the Journey! April 2, 2025

"The joy of the Lord is your strength."

Nehemiah 8:10

Today's Word

Joy is not always easy to find, especially in difficult seasons. Yet Nehemiah reminds us that joy is a strength that comes from the Lord, not from circumstances. True joy doesn’t depend on what’s happening around us, but on the unshakable truth of who God is and His presence in our lives.

When we focus on God’s faithfulness and goodness, joy becomes a wellspring that strengthens us to face challenges. It’s a deep, enduring joy that cannot be stolen by the ups and downs of life.

Prayer

Lord, fill my heart with Your joy today. May Your joy be my strength as I navigate life’s challenges. Help me to remember Your goodness and let that joy carry me forward. In Jesus' name, Amen.
