gratitude children joy
A child of God should be a visible beatitude for joy and happiness, and a living doxology for gratitude and adoration.
wisdom giving-up joy
Dear brethren, this is exactly what we have to do, we have to pawn the present for the future. We must be satisfied to give up anything which Christ may require of us for the sake of that which is to come. Our inheritance is not on this side of Jordan. Our joy is yet to be revealed. I grant you that we have much thrown in, for the Lord is a good paymaster; but on the road to heaven he gives us only our spending money.
heaven joy sorrow
The joys of heaven will surely compensate for the sorrows of earth.
joy today christ
Our hope in Christ for the future is the mainspring and the mainstay of our joy down here today.
jesus believe joy
It is a great joy to believe that Jesus has been tempted in all points just as we are.
thinking joy suffering
It is the very joy of this earthly life to think that it will come to an end.
running heart joy
When the heart is full of joy, it always allows its joy to escape. It is like the fountain in the marketplace; whenever it is full it runs away in streams, and so soon as it ceases to overflow, you may be quite sure that it has ceased to be full. The only full heart is the overflowing heart.
christian men joy
I am no preacher of the old legal Sabbath. I am a preacher of the gospel. The Sabbath of the Jew is to him a task; the Lord's Day of the Christian, the first day of the week, is to him a joy, a day of rest, of peace, and of thanksgiving. And if you Christian men can earnestly drive away all distractions, so that you can really rest today, it will be good for your bodies, good for your souls, good mentally, good spiritually, good temporally, and good eternally.
sweet joy sorrow
There is a sweet joy that comes to us through sorrow.
joy sorrow sin
That conversion which is all joy and lacks sorrow for sin, is very questionable.
punishment joy endless
Death is no punishment to the believer: it is the gate of endless joy.
depression joy excess
Poor human nature cannot bear such strains as heavenly triumphs bring to it; there must come a reaction. Excess of joy or excitement must be paid for by subsequent depressions. While the trial lasts, the strength is equal to the emergency; but when it is over, natural weakness claims the right to show itself.
joy honor pathways
Obedience to the will of God is the pathway to perpetual honor and everlasting joy.
christian christian-inspirational joy
Whatever is your greatest joy and treasure, that is your god.
