No matter where you are; no matter what is going on, joy is possible. God wants to give you something far more than happiness; he wants to give you indescribable joy. Gratitude is the first step in rediscovering that kind of God-given joy.
Series Information
Happiness is not the same as joy happiness is fleeting and depends on circumstances. The Bible does not promise happiness, it promises joy, which comes from God, not circumstances. Joy is characterized by deep gratitude for who God is and what he has done, and it transcends pain or grief or other suffering.
