Joy doesn't come from Jesus giving you all the stuff you ever wanted. That is temporary excitement and happiness. It will fade. Because it's not true joy.
Joy is not temporary. Joy is eternal because it is FROM the Eternal One. And when I say FROM I do not mean from Him to you. It IS Him to you. It is from His very essence to you. Spirit to spirit. Himself into you.
A child of God- beloved, holy, righteous, blameless, healed, forgiven, brand new, sheep, salt, light, a branch, temple of God, reconciled, a saint, God's workmanship, hidden with Christ in God, an expression of the life of Christ because He is my life, a partaker, a living stone- crucified with Christ, I no longer live but Christ lives IN ME!
