"Joy is the serious business of heaven."
~C.S. Lewis
God is joyful! Which is a delightful thing to remember on any day. He's not frowning up in heaven, but smiling, delighting in righteousness.
Psalm 16:11 says that His presence is "full of joy." And in John 15: 11, Christ shows His disciples how to have His kind of joy, joy that is "full." And Galatians 5:22 states that one of the fruits of the Holy Spirit is joy.
And Nehemiah 8: 10 proclaims that "the joy of the LORD is your strength." God, who never changes, is joyful, and He wants us to be joyful too! Isn't it wonderful to have such a great God? :)
