This may sound like an April Fool’s Day joke.

But this is the Sovereign Creator — He who is the way, the truth, and the life — being absolutely truthful…

The fruit of the Spirit is joy. —Gal. 5:22.

Joy in the Holy Ghost. —Unspeakable and full of glory.

Sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; . . . exceeding joyful in all our tribulation. —We glory in tribulations.

Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; . . . for the joy that was set before him, endured the cross, despising the shame. —These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full. —As the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also aboundeth by Christ.

Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice. —The joy of the Lord is your strength.

In thy presence is fulness of joy: at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore. —For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.

This is no joke.

This is no April Liar’s trick.

Maybe you don’t have one.

That’s OK.

Isaac went out to meditate in the field at the eventide. —Gen. 24:63.

Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer.

When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained; what is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him? —The works of the Lord are great, sought out of all them that have pleasure therein.

Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. —This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night. —My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips: when I remember thee upon my bed, and meditate on thee in the night watches.
