Eternal Joy


"Nothing is to quench the believer's joy for it is occasioned by that which is eternal."

F.B. Hole, I Thess., p.132
When I occupy my mind with all that the Lord has done for me, all that He has in store for me and all that He is doing for me right at this moment I can rejoice in Him. My future is secure. I do not know what this life may have for me...sickness, sorrow, pain. But because I know that where I am going after this short life is over can only be pure joy and bliss I can rejoice even today. My future is very bright.

Psalm 30:4-5
Kedj. Bobby, Lily and I sit on our swing and watch as the morning breaks. Sometimes it is as late as 8:00, but the earlier is the better. Sunlight streams through our garden from the East. Our doves are busy nesting on the shoulder of the chimney. Our hummers are kept busy at the star jasmine and a few wrens are very interested in our bird houses. It is a time to reflect on our worthlessness and what the Lord has provided for us. Indeed: ...
"...joy cometh in the morning."

Please would you post some more. I am tempest tossed and not comforted, over and over and over. Sin is in my life, through the whole thing, making the tempest, and I dont have the will and strength to get rid of it, even though I've been saved basically my whole life. My family is being divided.
