Thought of the week...

What if there were no such thing as joy? What if it was gone? What if that emotion no longer existed? Could we ever truly be joyful?

I see many people who are sad and depressed over the economy, struggle and just life in general. The Bible says:

24 So I decided there is nothing better than to enjoy food and drink and to find satisfaction in work. Then I realized that these pleasures are from the hand of God. 25 For who can eat or enjoy anything apart from him? 26 God gives wisdom, knowledge, and joy to those who please him.... Ecclesasties 2:24-26

Everything comes from God. God will give us the "joy" when we do His purpose.
