Finding True Joy

God's Personality

How would you describe joy? What comes to mind when you hear the word joy? If you were asked to describe God's personality, what would you say? How would you describe His demeanor? Would you say that God is joy? King David described God and in his description he described Him as being infinitely joyful. "In your presence is abundant joy; at your right hand are eternal pleasures"  (Psalms 16:11). In His presence we can find the true joy that only He can give. 

LORD, thank you for the true joy that comes only from you. It is in your presence that we find abundant joy. Your word quenches my soul and gives me peace. It is in you that I seek comfort from a weary world. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
