As Christians we believe that joy is a gift from God that is experienced in communion with Him.
God is described as a joyful God who delights in His creation and in the redemption of mankind. The ultimate source of joy for Christians is the knowledge of God's love, grace, and salvation through Jesus Christ.
Joy is not simply a fleeting feeling but a deep and lasting state of happyness that comes from being in a relationship with God, abiding in His love, and experiencing His presence.
