Daily Light on the Daily Path
Morning April 1
The fruit of the Spirit is joy.
Joy in the Holy Ghost. — Unspeakable and full of glory.
Sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; … exceeding joyful in all our tribulation. — We glory in tribulations.
Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; … for the joy that was set before him, endured the cross, despising the shame. — These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be fuIl. — As the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also aboundeth by Christ. Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice. — The joy of the Lord is your strength.
In thy presence is fulness of joy: at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore. — For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.
