The Joy of the Lord is Our Strength

We hear this phrase a lot. We hang it on our walls, make it the background on our phones and sing it in songs. But do we truly believe it? 
No matter how many weights we lift, we will never be strong enough. At some point physically and mentally our strength will fail. God's strength never fails.

the JOY of the Lord is your strength.
the joy of the Lord is YOUR strength.
the joy of the Lord is your STRENGTH.

No matter what ups and downs life brings, we find our strength in the Lord. As a result we experience is abundant joy! The joy of knowing that our strength is in Him alone. 
That's why we build our lives on the truth of God's word and follow Him obediently with our whole hearts. Who's with me?!
