Jesus Gives Me Joy
📖 “These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full.”
—John 15:11 (NKJV)
Joy is more than just feeling happy. Happiness can come and go depending on what happens during the day. But the joy Jesus gives is deeper. It stays in your heart even when things are not perfect.
Jesus wants His joy to remain in you. That means when you stay close to Him—by praying, reading the Bible, and obeying Him—your heart fills with a special kind of gladness. This joy does not disappear when something small goes wrong.
You can still feel sad sometimes and still have joy. Joy means you trust that Jesus is good and that He is with you. It means you know He loves you and has a good plan for your life.
When Jesus’ joy fills your heart, you can share it with others. A joyful heart shows that you belong to Him.
Prayer:
Jesus, thank You for giving me joy that lasts. Help me stay close to You so Your joy can fill my heart. Teach me to trust You and share Your joy with others. Amen.

I’m a follower of Christ, learning daily to walk the narrow path laid out in His Word. Through Rooted & Raised: Anchoring Women & Children in Christ, I simply seek to point others back to Scripture, tested by the Holy Spirit, lived out in faith, and anchored in truth.
● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them.
