Joy is one of the chief characteristics of a Christian, and yet sadly so many of us believers know nothing o fit. This is a great hindrance to our witness. Joy is not resignation of wearing a wan smile. The joy spoken of its exuberant and overflowing. The summons to rejoice is sounded no less than seventy times in the New Testament and this New Testament is really a book of joy.
Whatever the ingredients of Christian experience and in whatever proportions they are mixed together, joy is one of them.
