Three candles on the third Advent Sunday. JOY is the candle today...the joy of the Lord is our strength. How could we continue without the joy of Christ, filling us with hope and strength to face each new day...each new year? Amidst trails and tribulations...there is always...always the JOY of the Lord abiding in the hearts of the redeemed.....Christ our Redeemer.....Immanuel...God with us, sustaining us.....filling us with joy...his joy. The joy of God with us.....Jesus!
Do not grieve for the joy of the Lord is your strength. Neh. 8:10

Yes, we truly need to be Joyful because of all that Christ has done for us. Have a blessed Sunday!
Amen! No matter where, no matter what, there is that deep, abiding joy. The joy of the Christmas season, the fact of Jesus on Earth, is the source. :)
Good Sunday Morning,
It just fills my heart with joy to read someone praising and honoring our Lord. The weight of the sinful world can certainly take its tole, but just thinking about Him and what He has done to give us the perfect eternal life fills the heart with "joy".
Thank you for this awesome post.
Blessings (hugs too)
