There is a certain indestructibility in Christian joy; and it is so, because Christian joy is in the Lord.
Its basis is that the Christian lives forever in the presence of Jesus Christ. The Christian can lose all things, and he can lose all people, but he can never lose Christ!
And, therefore, even in circumstances where joy would seem to be impossible and there seem to be nothing but pain and discomfort, Christian joy remains, because not all the threats and terrors and discomforts of life can ever separate the Christian from the love of God in Christ Jesus (Romans 8:35-39).
Our joy is in the fact that there is never a moment when He cannot still storms, heal diseases, or deliver us from any number of difficulties.
