Do you ever wonder why some people have a demeanor that draws others to them due to the fact that they seem to love life and the experiences that they have encountered, while others are difficult to be around due to their negativity and overall distaste they express because of a sometimes pessimistic attitude and expecting the worst in every situation. Joy is an internal experience that expresses long-lasting happiness and overall contentment with life and its circumstances. When you are a follower of Jesus Christ, expressing your joy because of what he accomplished on the cross to ensure your eternal destiny should be evident to those around you.

The truth of God’s Word to reflect on:

“Always be joyful.” 1 Thessalonians 5:16
