Psalm 30:10-12 ” Hear, O Lord, and be merciful to me; O Lord, be my help. You turned my wailing into dancing; You removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy, that my heart may sing to You and not be silent. O Lord my God, I will give you thanks forever.”

The joy of the Lord is our strength. (Nehemiah 8:10)  And during those dark times in our lives when our spirit is broken, it’s that joy we need to hold tightly to.  For it’s the blessedness and gratitude of joy that can change our attitude and view of things.  The situation we’re in may not change…but the joy of the Lord will strengthen us to press on.
