Joy springs from a life lived with eternity's values in view.

Nothing speaks louder or more powerfully than a life of integrity

Life...as God intended it enables us to live above the drag of fear, superstition, shame, pessimism, guilt, anxiety, worry, and all the negativity that keeps people from seizing each day as a gift from Him.

At least one indication of unbelief is the tendency to measure life's challenges against our own adequacy instead of God's promises. To enter our Sabbath rest, we must put an end to self-reliance - trusting in our own abilities to overcome difficulties, rise above challenges, escape tragedies, or achieve personal greatness.

An anniversary says, "Think of the dreams you have weathered together. They are intimate accomplishments."

Joy is a deeply felt contentment that transcends difficult circumstances and derives maximum enjoyment from every good experience.

Christlikeness is a journey, not a destination. The joy is in the journey.
