James 1:2:"Consider it pure JOY, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds."
Wow. PURE JOY. Is it possible to have joyous trials? I guess so. It is saying that we need to be joyful at all times! Even through hardships. How do we find joy in difficult situations?
The one thing that always brings me joy, that I am reminded of by the Holy Spirit, is this: We have a Saviour, who saved us from all of our sins, HOW GREAT IS THAT?! Should that bring us enough joy in itself? Ask Him to remind you of that whenever you think your world is about to end.
Oh and another way to find joy--we have and ALMIGHTY GOD who LOVES us unconditionally! I know that we know this, but it is so easy to forget that. We don't have to earn God's love, he loves us in whatever we do! :) I love that! If we screw up, he still loves us.
Yeap, we pretty much have an awesome God. <3
