All degres of joy reside in the heart. How can a christian be full of happiness (if happiness depends on the things that happen) when he is in a world where the devil is doing his best to twist souls away from god, where people are tortured physically, where some are downtrodden and do not get a chance? It would be the outcome of the most miserable selfishness to be happy under such conditions. But a joyful heart is never an insult, and joy is never touched by external conditions.
- Oswald Chambers -
How often am i joyful?
What is the ratio of joy to happiness in my life?
How often do i allow circumstances to determine my mood?
