Because Happiness Isnt Enough
H ave you wondered why some people seem to experience deep and authentic joy in their daily liveseven in the toughest timesand others cant seem to find it no matter how hard they search? Many of us eventually give up the pursuit, assuming we were unfortunate enough to have been standing on the wrong side of the door when God was handing out joy. It has often seemed to me that only a few lucky people receive the gift of joy and that fewer still know joys secret. Im here to say, Ive learned thats just not true!
Even though it may not feel that way to you at this moment, joy is available to you. You may be thinking, I dont experience joy as much as other people do. Its just not my thing. Or, joy means living in denial of all the pain in the world. But as Ive discovered in my own life, joy is not about your circumstances or about how you feel. It is definitely not about living in denial and ignoring sorrow or pain. Joy is something much deeper, richer, more stable, and definitely more accessible than you might have thought. Thats the beauty of the joy God offers. You no longer need to live in fear or worry, because Gods joy will always be available to you. In this world you will have trouble, Jesus says. But you can still take heart. You can still receive joy. You are not dependent on anyone or anything other than God and yourself to know joy.
Theres one promise I want to give you as we start: I will be honest with you about my life and my search for joy. I will not gloss over my doubts, failures, and sins, and I will admit to youand myselfmy sweaty, middle-of-the-night wrestling with God over issues of faith. I find my own faith bolstered when I know someone else is struggling and sometimes succeeding in letting Christ be formed in her. Spiritual growth doesnt happen automatically and is rarely pretty; we will all be under construction until the day we die and we finally take hold of the life that is truly life (1 Tim. 6:19). So lets walk side by side for a while, and Ill share with you what Im learning about how to choose joy every day... in the best and worst of times... in every moment.
As you go through the study, Id love to hear from you! I hope youll share with me, and others traveling down this road, the ways youre choosing joy and the lessons God is teaching you. At KayWarren.com you can post your own stories, find more teachings and resources, and also sign up for the free Choose Joy daily video devotionals. Each day you will receive an email from me with a video message that will urge you to look a little deeper at your life and challenge you to choose joy in a way you may not have expected.
Thanks for joining me as together we choose joy,
Kay Warren
