Scripture
"Then he said to them, 'Go your way. Eat the fat and drink sweet wine and send portions to anyone who has nothing ready, for this day is holy to our Lord. And do not be grieved, for the joy of the Lord is your strength.'"
— Nehemiah 8:10
Reflection
Joy is a powerful spiritual engine. It isn't just a byproduct of good days; it is a source of strength that helps you face the trials of life with a steady spirit.
Prayer
Lord, let Your joy be my fuel today, especially when I feel weak.
