You've probably heard Nehemiah 8:10 before. "The joy of the Lord is your strength." But here's what nobody told me for years: the joy of the Lord is not some abstract thing floating around waiting for you to grab it. It's his joy. His smile over your life.
That shift changed everything for me.
In this video I'm talking about what the joy of the Lord actually is, why it's nothing like happiness, and what it looks like to receive it in the hard places. We're looking at Nehemiah 8, Zephaniah 3:17, Psalm 3, and Psalm 16:11. And I'm sharing a little of my own story...the parts that tested the joy I was known for long before I fully understood what joy really was.
If you have been trying to manufacture joy in your own strength and wondering why it runs out, this one is for you.
At the end of this video you'll see an invitation to grab Mom's Hearts, my free mini-class. It's two short video lessons built around a simple creative practice that helps you experience the love of God in a real, personal way. It's where a lot of women start before they find their way into the Joy Revival community.
