Renew Your Joy
Renew Your Joy
Honor and majesty are [ found] in His presence; strength and joy are [ found] in His sanctuary. —1 Chronicles 16:27 Emotional trauma drains people of their energy. But the Word says, “Be not grieved and depressed, for the joy of the Lord is your strength and stronghold” (Nehemiah 8:10). The devil wants to steal your joy because he knows that joy is your strength. He wants you to be weak so that you won’t resist the turmoil he sets against you. That is why sometimes we need each other. Some days God will send messengers to build you up in faith and renew your joy. Some days He will send you to someone else who is in a weakened condition because Satan has been pounding on them. Be someone’s friend today. They may need a friend to stand beside them and encourage them and to lift them up and pray for them. From the book Starting Your Day Right by Joyce Meyer

Emotions are tiring, especially when we can`t put a label on them and identify them for what they are. I found a lot of emotions foreign because I had shut them down for so many years, I didn`t know what it was. Most of it came out as anger, and under that was resentment, rejection, abandonment, and so much more.
I had done a 4th Step, and none of it showed. When I quit smoking, things were revealed because I had been using cigarettes to close down and close off. Through Him, all things are possible.
