The Psalmist wrote, "You will show me the path of life; in Your presence is fullness of joy; at Your right hand are pleasures forevermore" (Psalm 16:11 NKJV). Joy is always an expression of our relationship with God. The closer we are to God, the more joyful we are. Someone once said, "Joy is the flag flown high from the castle of my heart, when the King is in residence there." Jesus told his apostles that they will experience problems, persecutions and perils in this life but they are commanded to maintain a joyful spirit. Paul admonished us to "Rejoice ever more" (1 Thessalonians 5:16). In this present world full of stress, we can still experience joy. Joy is not a product of chance like happiness but an expression of the life of God in us. My prayer is that this book will help rekindle joy in your life, home, church and through you to the larger society. We can, like Prophet Habakkuk, say, "Although the fig tree shall not blossom, neither shall fruit be in the vines; the labour of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield no meat; the flock shall be cut off from the fold, and there shall be no herd in the stalls: Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will joy in the God of my salvation" (Habakkuk 3:17-18). And like the psalmist, we can declare, "Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning (Psalm 30:5). May this book help you make joy, not just a transient phenomena but a lifestyle.
