Scripture: “You make known to me the path of life; in Your presence there is fullness of joy; at Your right hand are pleasures forevermore.” – Psalm 16:11
Reflection:
Joy is more than a fleeting emotion; it is a deep and abiding state of being that comes from God. In His presence, we find joy that satisfies the deepest longings of our hearts. This joy doesn’t depend on our circumstances or achievements but is rooted in the assurance of God’s love and His promises. During Advent, we are reminded to draw near to God, for it is in Him that our hearts find rest and fulfillment.
In a season often filled with busyness and distractions, it’s easy to seek joy in temporary things. But true joy comes from abiding in God’s presence. Spend time today meditating on His goodness and allowing His love to fill your heart. How can you make space in your life to experience the fullness of joy that only He can provide?
Prayer:
Lord, thank You for being the source of my joy. Help me to seek You above all else and find true fulfillment in Your presence. Amen.
