True, deep, lasting joy comes from experiencing the love of God, but many do not know this. We all want gladness to be a part of our lives, yet it seems that our circumstances often rob us from finding this place of true joy. Change is inevitable and there will be no constant in our circumstances- some ups and downs. But the truth is this: As we continue on to follow the path leading into Christ kingdom, we will find a full measure of complete and overflowing joy abiding in the mystery of Jesus’ love! His love for us is so enormous and powerful that it can lift us out of fear and worry and take us to the heights of joy, unspeakable and full of glory! Our lives are in His hands, and Jesus wants a personal relationship with each of us which will lead us towards spiritual enlightenment. He loves us unconditionally, and He calls us to come to Him, and find our true destiny. Even when we falter, His love is bigger than our weaknesses, we always have His open invitation to stay with Him and grow in love. That constant will never change in this world or the next.

“I have loved you, [just] as the Father has loved Me; abide in My love [continue in His love with Me]. I have told you these things, that My joy and delight may be in you, and that your joy and gladness may be of full measure and complete and overflowing” (John 15:9,11).
