Psalm 28 Verse 7: “The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trust in Him, and I am helped. Therefore, my heart rejoices, and I praise Him with my song”.

David blessed The Lord for His deliverance and wasn’t ashamed to confess it.

If we want to do strength work, well Joy is like a muscle; the more we develop it, the stronger it becomes.

An exercise for Joy is ‘Gratitude. 1 Thessalonians 5 Verse 18:

“Give thanks in everything, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus”.

It does not say be thankful for all circumstances, but In them.

So look for more and more ways to express gratitude.

If we are not naturally a joyful person, start sing and praising Our Lord and Friend in all things, even little things and just see how our attitudes start to change

God Bless,
