One last description of what being squeezed by JOY looks like—It fills our hearts. Joy’s embrace covers our bodies (joy clothes), our minds (crowns of joy), and our hearts (joy in our hearts).
David declares to the Lord in Psalm 4, You have put more joy in my heart than they have when their grain and new wine abound.
Let’s think about those words for minute
Jesus, You have put more joy in my heart
Nothing compares to the joy Jesus puts in our hearts!
How would you finish the prayer? Jesus, you have put more joy in my heart than ___________. What goes in the blank? What’s your comparison? What’s your declaration?
