"Do not grieve, for the joy of the Lord is your strength." - Nehemiah 8:10b What does it mean to draw strength from your joy? Can you feel joy in all circumstances? How do you find joy when they world feels dark, cold and scary? This episode's chatter is about the story of Nehemiah, how we led the Israelites from fear to strength in joy and how we can cling to God's goodness in a way that will cause joy in all circumstances!
Life can be hard, heavy and flat out terrifying! We're here for you in all those circumstances, and we pray that our words, lives and conversations will encourage you to love God more fearlessly, chase Him with abandon and lean in when you can't reconcile your pain and His goodness. We may not know your story, but we know fear, struggles and loss so we get it! Praying love and joy over you life today!
