Summary
In our third day of looking at Joy, we’re going to take time to look at David’s statement in Psalm 16:11, where he describes a “fullness of joy.” There is a greater fullness of life available to you and me in God that most of us will ever experience. Experiencing more of God almost always requires laying down more of the things of the world. But if we today will give a greater measure of our hearts over to God, we’ll find greater joy than we could have imagined experiencing this side of heaven.
Our Scripture for today comes from Psalm 16:11, and today's worship is Garments by Cory Asbury.
