EMPOWERED Joy: God is the source of our joy
What is joy? How is it different than happiness?
What are some things that bring you joy?
Psalm 43:4 |There I will go to the altar of God, to God—the source of all my joy. I will praise you with my harp, O God, my God!
Psalm 16:11 | You will show me the way of life, granting me the joy of your presence and the pleasures of living with you forever.
According to Psalm 43:4, where does joy come from?
Why would joy and praise be connected?
If joy comes from God’s presence like Psalm 16:11 says, what can we do if we aren’t full of joy like we should be as God’s follower?
