Joy

The Joy of the Lord

Day 21

"For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning."
— Psalm 30:5
Reflection

The night has an end. However dark your present season feels, it is not the final chapter — joy comes in the morning. God's favour is life itself, and His mercies are new every sunrise. Sorrow is real, and the Bible never pretends otherwise; even Jesus wept. But sorrow is a visitor, not a resident. Hold on through the night, because the God who keeps watch over you has already appointed your morning.

Prayer

Lord, in my weeping, remind me that morning is coming. Fill my heart with the joy that only You can give, even in the waiting. Amen.
