Are you happy? Do you have joy? Did you know that the two are not the same? Happiness comes and goes, but joy is persistent. We can be joyful in the midst of struggle, in the midst of persecution and even in our grief.
How? Because joy is a choice. We have the ability to choose to be joyful no matter our circumstances. It is a joy the world does not understand and would even call inappropriate.
