There’s a joy that doesn’t depend on sunny skies or smooth days—a joy that anchors our hearts even when life feels uncertain. That joy is found in Jesus. It’s not fleeting or shallow; it’s deep, abiding, and available to us no matter what we face.
Jesus doesn’t promise an easy life, but He promises His presence—and in His presence, there is fullness of joy (Psalm 16:11). When we remember who He is and how much He loves us, we’re reminded that joy isn’t something we have to manufacture. It’s something we receive when we rest in Him.
The world chases happiness through success, possessions, or temporary pleasures. But true, lasting joy flows from a relationship with the One who never changes. It’s the peace that settles your soul in the middle of a storm. It’s the smile that rises up even when things don’t go your way—because you know you’re held by a faithful God.
So today, choose to lean into Jesus. Let His truth quiet your fears and let His love spark joy in your heart. Because when your joy is in Jesus, it’s not easily shaken—it’s eternally secure.
