The book of Psalm 30:5 says, “weeping may last for a night, but joy comes in the morning.”
 
Whatever you may be going through, remain still and know God is there for you. You may be going through a rough time right now but know that it won’t last; joy will always come.
 
“Joy is a condition of the Heart” – the word Joy appears 200 plus times in the Bible; it is vital to walk this out in everyday life. 
 
Rick Warren gave us this definition of joy: “Joy is the settled assurance that God is in control of all the details of my life, the quiet confidence that ultimately everything is going to be alright, and the determined choice to praise God in every situation.
 
Let the joy of the Lord be your strength today and every day.
