These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full.

- John 15:11

His joy is our strength!

Let this truth wash over you today. When God created you, He created you for joy and peace.

Where do you get this joy? From Him! For He is the boundless, over-flowing and ultimate source of joy.

While other blessings and gifts in this life can also give us joy, they are only temporary.

Despite the numerous distractions of the world, fix your eyes on God.

He is the only one who can grant you the complete soul-satisfaction you desire.

He created us for the very purpose to have a deep loving relationship with Him, making Him the only one capable of satisfying our longing for wholeness.

He is the only perfect and infinite source of joy, making Him the most reliable and worthy person to receive your attention.

Look to Him as your joyful focus today, knowing He will never run out. Whisper His name in loving remembrance and pour out your heart to Him, knowing that He is faithful to grant you His strength!

With Love,
Sarah Sherstad
