You will make known to me the way of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; in Your right hand there are pleasures forever. Psalm 16: 11 Meditate or Reflect
Sometimes joy is outwardly expressed in an upbeat, positive emotion; yet, more often joy is experienced as a sublime knowing, or confidence. Joy is the assurance that God is in control. We can be “ok” in His presence, or we can delight in His presence – either way is an experience of joy with God. This verse reminds us that God is in control because He “will make known to me the way of life.” And historically, the “right hand” is a symbol of power. God is in control, and that is a great relief, a type of joy. Take a breath in this moment, and acknowledge God is in control of this day. Comments are closed.
