Today is election day, and once the polls close and the results are in, those who think they have “lost” are going to be upset and very unhappy.
But the biblical phrase "The joy of the Lord is my strength" from Nehemiah 8:10 is a powerful truth to remember and live by.
It means that true strength comes from the joy that God gives, not from external sources such as wealth or worldly power.
This joy is rooted in a deep, trusting relationship with God, which provides emotional and spiritual resilience in difficult times. It acts as a refuge, providing a sense of security and protection. This joy does not depend on circumstances, but on our faith in God's goodness and promises, which enable us who believe to face hardship with courage and hope.
May we embrace the joy of the Lord as our source of strength and not the fleeting happiness that this world has to offer.
