"If I want to find strength for the day-to-day,
if I want a life filled with joy
and not just fading happiness,
I'll need to find my way into the very presence of God...
because that's where the fullness of joy lives.
But where in the world
do I find the presence of God?
And how do I lead my boys there...
so they're not seeking after fleeting happiness,
but pursuing deep and abiding joy?
Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you.
James 4:8
Yes,
the simplest answer
is often the best one.
Need to hear God speak to you?
Need to know He's working, moving in your life?
Need to feel the joy of the Lord,
the unspeakable joy of knowing that Christ took the
full punishment
for your sin?
Get close to Him."

"For you shall go out in joy
and be led forth in peace;
the mountains and the hills before you
shall break forth into singing,
and all the trees of the field shall
clap their hands."
Isaiah 55:12
