Joy used to feel like something I had to earn.
Like it came after the healing, after the clarity, after everything was “fixed.”
But Scripture and experience tells a different story:
✨ “The joy of the Lord is your strength.” (Nehemiah 8:10)
Not your reward. Your resource.
These past few months, I’ve been learning that joy is something I can choose even when I don’t feel it and that choice actually begins to change everything.
So today, I’m declaring:
đź’¬ I was made for joy. Joy is my rhythm, not my reward.
What about you? What helps you return to joy when life gets heavy?
