Topic: The Joy of The Lord Is Your Strength
Nehemiah 8.10 - Nehemiah said, “Go and enjoy choice food and sweet drinks, and send some to those who have nothing prepared. This day is holy to our Lord. Do not grieve, for the joy of the LORD is your strength.”
Definition of Joy - Mirriam Webster dictionary
Joy is a deep, abiding emotion of intense happiness, well-being, and delight. While happiness
is often a fleeting reaction to external circumstances, joy is an internal state of contentment and peace that can endure even during difficult times.
Nuance - Joy vs. Happiness
Happiness is usually tied to what happens to you (e.g., getting a promotion or eating a great meal). Joy is more closely tied to your core values, gratitude, and a deeper sense of fulfillment.
