God has been showing me stuff about joy -
Like how if you don't keep your eyes on the joy set before you, you won't have the strength to do the things you are called to. Like how if the devil can't steal your joy, he can't take your stuff. Like how the joy OF THE LORD is my very lifeblood and it only comes from His sweet presense in my every second.
You know when He teaches you something there is generally a reason why you need it? We call it the tigger annointing - bouncing in the face of impossibility, pressure, circumstance.
So today, I'm going to bounce. Today i am going to press further in to God's sweet presense. Today I'm not letting go of the joy that's mine by inheritence. With tears in my eyes, i go deeper and make the exchange - my tears for His joy, His presense.
Because I have the same DNA as Jesus, joy is mine. Not mauufactured joy. Not religious joy. I mean REAL JOY.
That way, I'm laughing.
