In this Lunar New Year message, Bobby Chaw delves into the topic of joy. During this time of year, the Chinese wish one another great joy for the year. The character 喜 comprises two words: drum and mouth, reflecting that “joy” means to make music, sing and laugh. While the world thinks of joy as happiness, the joy of the Lord is quite different. Christians are called to rejoice even when they least feel like it: joy is not determined by outward circumstances but a believer’s confidence in the Lord. Discover what it truly means to have the joy of the Lord be your strength.
