Joy is Strength
When I think of joy, I think of this verse: The word ‘JOY’ is more than just a noun, defined in the dictionary as: JOY (n): “a feeling of great pleasure and happiness.” To me, the word ‘JOY’ is a VERB (a call to action!), defined in the dictionary as: JOY (v):”REJOICE” We often talk…
