Read Psalm 42:7-8
I’ve been reflecting on joy this week and I'm stuck on the image in Psalm 42:
"Deep calls to deep '
in the roar of your waterfalls;
all your waves and breakers
have swept over me.
By day the LORD directs his love,
at night his song is with me --
a prayer to the God of my life.”
...even when we're in the choppiest waters with waves and breakers crashing over us, something from very deep within us is still calling out and connecting with the Lord. Our joy is not threatened by choppy waters - our happiness may be, but not our joy. Because regardless of circumstances, the ultimate victory will be God's, and this God we worship loves us and will sustain us, and from that we can draw a joy that lasts.
