Did you know that the words "joy" and "rejoice" appear in the Bible over 400 times? From the beginning of the Bible to the end we are repeatedly instructed, encouraged, and provoked to rejoice. Clearly, joy is important to God, and an essential part of our lives as believers.
But when was the last time you took stock of your own joy? How often do you measure the health and the strength of your heart? Are you actively pursuing a joyful life? And if not - why not?
