When times get tough, what are your thoughts? As circumstances change, it's easy to get upset, frustrated, confused, etc. With the focus on Joy today, we see an example of someone who didn't let their circumstances dictate their joy. Yes, there was confusion and doubts, but when our eyes are on the Lord and trusting Him, joy prevails. That may not mean everything gets easy or fun, but joy isn't dependent on our circumstances. Joy is rooted in God's promises. Amidst any troubling times, turn your eyes towards the Lord and trust that He is guiding you on a path of joy regardless of whatever is going on around you.
