Many people confuse happiness with joy,
but they are not the same.

Happiness is often tied to favorable circumstances—

when things are going well, when life feels easy.

But joy is deeper than that.

Joy is an inner, abiding contentment and strength that persists even in difficult seasons.
It is the stability of the soul when circumstances are unstable.

Happiness may fade when situations change,
but true joy endures through trials.
So don’t just pursue happiness…
cultivate joy.

God is a good God.
