The Joy of The Lord Is Our Strength

Some people go around their entire life with a long face and they look like they have lost their last friend. If we are in Christ we have the best friend that could ever be. A friend that sticketh closer than a brother. This should put a smile on our face and the joy of the Lord in our hearts. Nehemiah 8:10 Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared: for this day is holy unto our Lord: neither be ye sorry; for the joy of the LORD is your strength.
