Our hearts don’t rejoice when we are faced with the problems in our lives such as too much stress on the job, disobedient children, low salaries and unhealed diseases. At this time, we do need the Lord’s help and comfort. God’s words say, “When people are sad, I come to comfort them, and when they are weak, I come to help them along. When they are lost, I give them direction. When they weep, I wipe away their tears.” The Bible says, “Rejoice in the Lord always” (Philippians 4:4). God is our reliance, and He can lift up sorrowful hearts with happiness. Let’s cast all our care upon God and receive peace and happiness from God. We hope the selected verses about joy can help you.
