Today on Bold Steps Minute, Pastor Mark defines what joy is. Joy is a fruit of the Holy Spirit and you could be in the middle of a difficult situation and still experience joy.

In God's presence there is fulness of joy!

Part of understanding joy is considering its source. Our joy is based on our relationship with God and it is born in us by the Holy Spirit. Joy elevates us in the presence of God. It controls our worship of Him, even when we’re going through difficult times and situations.

When we seek to understand joy, we’ll discover that joy changes our attitude, our affections, and it helps us with the way we act and respond to the circumstances in our lives.

When we look at the difference between joy and happiness, we learn that joy is produced by the Holy Spirit; happiness is produced by the human spirit. And so, if it’s independent of circumstances, joy is not impacted by what’s happening around us or to us. Joy is what’s happening through us.
