IN CHRIST JESUS ALONE THERE IS FULLNESS OF JOY

Many peole are pursuing things, giving their best to make themselves happy, missing the most important thing, the truth.
Joy and happiness are wonderful feelings to experience, but they are very different.

You make known to me the path of life; in Your presence there is fullness of joy; at Your right hand are pleasures forevermore.
~ Psalm 16:11 ESV

Joy comes when you make peace with who you are in Christ, why you are the way you are and how you are, whereas happiness tends to be externally triggered and is based on other people, material things, places, thoughts and events.

Happiness is superficial, when someone gives you a gift, it makes you happy, doesn't it?.
Get a promotion at work, you are happy. Win something new, excited with happiness.
BUT, let us not forget that all these things will fade away.

TRUE JOY CAN ONLY BE FOUND IN CHRIST JESUS. GO DEEPER in the Word. The Word of God is God. KNOW Who God is, KNOW who you are in God and what you have in Him.

Whatever God may allow you to encounter in this life, HIS JOY IS YOUR STRENGTH and you will have the pleasures of living with Him forever in Heaven.

There is a river whose streams delight the city of God, the holy place where the Most High dwells. Psalm 46:4

Instead of shame, My people will have a double portion, and instead of humiliation, they will rejoice in their share; and so they will inherit a double portion in their land, and everlasting joy will be theirs.
Isaiah 61:7

ONLY in Jesus, there is FULLNESS OF JOY.
