Joy grows from within Joy does not come from pushing yourself to feel happy or pretending everything is fine. It grows when you give God space to work within you. As you slow down and stop forcing things, you begin to notice how God shapes your heart. Joy forms through trust, patience, and learning to accept where you are right now. This kind of joy stays even when plans change. It does not depend on perfect days, but on a heart that allows God to lead from the inside out. May God continue shapi
