Life's deepest joy stems from a profound connection with the divine, beyond mere external pleasures or transient feelings. True joy is found in a relationship with the eternal, transforming suffering and hardship into opportunities for spiritual growth and deeper reliance on divine promises. This joy is not about comfort or ease, but about finding delight in the divine presence, even amidst life's trials. We are called to serve with gladness, recognizing that genuine joy in service reflects a heartfelt connection with the divine. This joy enables us to love and serve others selflessly, emanating from a place of spiritual abundance. The pursuit of such joy requires a conscious effort to align our desires with the divine will, seeking fulfillment not in worldly gains but in the eternal. By focusing our hearts on the divine, we find a joy that sustains us through suffering, empowers us to serve others, and ultimately glorifies the divine. This pursuit transforms our lives, guiding us to live with purpose, compassion, and a deep, abiding sense of spiritual fulfillment.

If anyone is lacking assurance or worried that thay are not a child of God, listen to the famous preacher Martin Loyd Jones on "the attacks of the devil," and like myself, you will find your assurance!! Also remember to pray about this, that God will give you assurance in your salvation ❣️💓🙏🙏

I get that pastor John, THIS JOY IN THE LORD, frees me to serve God and men without complaining, all because I'm so deeply rooted in the word of God,no matter what happens to me, around me, my inner Joy is so deep because the word of God settles me with Joy. Spending time in the word with God is worth it, pursue for that kind of joy.THE JOY OF THE LORD IS MY STRENGTH.

Genesis 47:1-12(Jacob's family❤ settles in Goshen) "47 So Joseph went in and told Pharaoh, " My father and my brothers, with their flocks and herds and all that they posses, have come from the land of Canaan. They are now in the land of Gishen." 2 And from among his brothers he took five men and presented them to Pharaoh, " Your servants are shepherds, as our fathers were." 4 They said to Pharaoh, " We have come to sojourn in the land, for there is no pasture for your servants' flocks, ( you might ask why? ) for( because) the famine is severe in the land of Canaan. And now, please lets your servants dwell in the land of Goshen." 5 Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, " Your father and your brothers have come to you. 6 The land of Egypt is before you. Settle your father (Israel😊❤) and your brothers( 12-1= 11 brothers(😊❤'s)) in the best of the land. Let them settle in the land of Gishen, and if you know any able men among them, put them in charge of my livestock." 7 Then Joseph😊❤ brought in Jacob😊❤ his father and stood him before Pharaoh, and Jacob blessed Pharaoh. 8 And Pharaoh said to Jacob, " How many are the days of the years of your life?"( another words saying, how old are you now? ) 9 And Jacob 😊❤ said to Pharaoh, " The days of the years of my sojourning😊❤ are 130 years. ( You might asked how old is Jacob or Israel😊❤ now? Answer was " 130 years" old( from Genesis 47:9 middle of the verse said so in Christ) "...Few and evil have been the days of the years of my life, and they have not attained to the days of the years of the life of my fathers( Jacob referred Abraham( 175 years old from Genesis 25:7 ) and Isaac ( 180 years old from Genesis 35:28, 28b ) in the days of their sojourning." (Pause in Genesis 47:8-9 in Christ. When Pharaoh asked Jacob😊❤ "...How many are the days of the years of your life?"( from Genesis 47:8a ESV Study Bible) " Pharaoh 's inquiry about Jacob's age may have been motivated by the belief that longevity was a sign of divine favor."( ESV Study Bible said.) Now Jacob's responsed to Pharaoh in Genesis 47:9 middle of the verse beside Jacob said " ...are 130 years from Genesis 47:9a or closer to middle of the verse) In Genesis 47:9 middle of the verse( Jacob said.) "... .Few and evil have been the days of the years of my life, ..."( from Genesis 47:9 middle of the verse) From my ESV Study Bible in hands in Christ, It said, " In this response Jacob😊❤ perhaps alludes to those events that have been his life less than happy: e.g, his treatment of Esau( his older brother), and his sons' deception of him regarding Joseph 😊❤. While Jacob😊❤ is now 130 years old( if someone ask you how old is Jacob😊❤ when Joseph brought him to Egypt , you tell them Jacob😊❤ is 130 years old okay. Thank you😊❤). Again while Jacob😊❤ is now 130 years old, Abraham😊❤ and Isaac😊❤ lived to be 175( from Genesis 25:7 " 7 These are the days of years of Abraham😊❤'s life, 175 years."( Genesis 25:7 ESV Study Bible) and 180(" 180 " from Genesis 35:28 " 28 Nos the days of Isaac were 180 years."( Genesis 35:28 ESV Study Bible), respectively."( ESV Study Bible) Abraham had died in 175 years in Genesis 25:7. Isaac had died in 180 years old from Genesis 35:28. " The Hebrew term translated "sojourning"( from Genesis 47:9a, 9b) implies that Jacob and his fathers( Abraham :) 175 from Genesis 25:7.) & Isaac :) ( 180 from Genesis 35:28)) had no permanent abode. This concept is developed along theological lines by the author of Hebrews , who view the patriacha as looking forward to inhabiting a "city that has foundations, whose designer(😊100%❤) and builder is God( God😊100%❤, our Father in heaven) ( from Hebrew 11:10 ( under by faith ( Hebrew 11:1-40( By faith😊❤) in Christ Hebrews 11:10😊❤ "10 For he( " he"= Abraham😊❤) was looking forward to the city that has foundations, whose designer(😊100%❤) and builder(😊100%❤) is God( God😊100%❤ our Father 😊100%❤ in heaven😊❤)."(Hebrew 11:10 ESV Study Bible) In Jesus'name, i pray( Hebrews 11:8-12😊❤) Amen. Anyways back to Genesis 47:9 on Jacob's comments to Pharaoh on " sojourning" from Genesis 47:9a( " sojourning", 9b ( " sojourning")appeared twice for that word, " sojourning" so "Jacob's comments may indicate( shows) that he anticipate something better to come." ( ESV Study Bible) by faith( Hebrews 11:1-40( by faith) in Christ😊❤. Now going back to Genesis 47:10-12 " 10 So Jacob blessed Pharaoh and went out from the presence of Pharaoh. 11 Then Joseph settled his father(Jacob or Israel😊❤) and his brothers(12(😊❤'s) -1=11 brothers 😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤ 😊❤😊❤ 😊❤ in Christ) and gave ❤ them a possession in the land of Egypt, the the best😊❤ of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded❤. 12 And Joseph provides his father( Jacob or Israel😊❤), his brothers(12-1=11😊❤'s), and all his father's household😊❤ with food❤, according to the number of their dependents." ( Genesis 47:10-12 above but above all in all meant to share😊❤ Genesis 47:1-12 ESV Study Bible and all parenthesis parts and symbols in Christ also for Christ and in Christ Jesus😊1st❤ in Christ. Romans 8:28😊❤. Hebrews 11:10 as my wrap about Abraham(😊❤) in Christ. Hebrews 11:10😊❤ "10 For he( " he"= Abraham😊❤) was looking forward to the city that has foundations, whose designer(😊100%❤) and builder(😊100%❤) is God( God😊100%❤ our Father 😊100%❤ in heaven😊❤)."(Hebrew 11:10 ESV Study Bible)

Mark 3:31-35(Jesus😊1st❤'s mother❤ and brothers(❤'s)) " 31 And his mother and his brothers came, and standing outside they sent to him and call him( Jesus😊1st❤ our Lord and our savior in Christ to me too in Christ). 32 And a crowd was sitting around him, and they said to him( Jesus😊1st❤ ), "Your mother(Mary😊❤) and your brothers(😊❤'s or Jesus' half brothers ) are outside, seeking 😊❤ you(Jesus😊1st❤)." 33 And he (Jesus😊1st❤) answered them, " Who are my mother and my brothers?" 34 And looking about at those(😊❤'s) who sat around him, he(Jesus😊1st❤) said, " Here are my mother❤ and my brothers(❤'s)! ( You might ask why Jesus(😊1st❤) said that?) 35 For(" For " means Because😊❤) whoever(anyone😊❤) does ❤ the will😊❤ of God( God😊100%❤, our Father😊100%❤ in heaven), he 😊❤ is my brother😊❤ and sister😊❤ and mother😊❤."( Mark 3:31-35 ESV Study Bible and all parenthesis parts in Christ and all symbols in Christ also for and in Christ Jesus our savior in Christ Jesus😊1st❤ in Christ) In Mark 3:35 "35 For(" For " means Because😊❤) whoever(anyone😊❤) does ❤ the will😊❤ of God( God😊100%❤, our Father😊100%❤ in heaven), he 😊❤ is my brother😊❤ and sister😊❤ and mother😊❤."( Mark 3:35 ESV Study Bible) In Mark 3:35 We can see from God's words😊❤ in Christ 😊❤ that " in midst of Jesus'(😊1st❤'s) teaching, his mother and half brothers(😊❤'s) are "seeking"😊❤ him( Jesus😊1st❤ our Lord and our savior in Christ from Luke 2:11😊❤ in Christ) from Mark 3:32 "32 And a crowd was sitting around him, and they said to him( Jesus😊1st❤ ), "Your mother(Mary😊❤) and your brothers(😊❤'s or Jesus' half brothers ) are outside, seeking 😊❤ you(Jesus😊1st❤)." ( Mark 3:32 ESV Study Bible) ; they presumably now try to " seize" him( from Mark 3:21 from yesterday's sharing from Mark 3:21 "21 And when his family heard it, they went out ( you might ask to do what?) to seize him(Jesus), for they were saying, " He is out of his mind." "( Mark 3:21 ESV Study Bible. Have you ever like Jesus😊1st❤ when you are preaching God's kingdom😊❤ to others😊❤ , healing😊❤ many❤ and driving out demon- possessed men out and they get healed😊❤ and then while you were teaching 😊❤ like Jesus😊1st❤ and then your own mother and half brothers came to seize you( Mark 3:21 middle of the verse) and in Mark 3:32b "... Your mother and your brothers are outside,( "outside" meant Jesus😊1st❤ was inside teaching😊❤ you might what are doing here looking( seeking) for Jesus😊1st❤?) seeking😊❤ you( Jesus😊1st❤ our Lord and our savior in Christ to me too in Christ)."( from Mark 3:32b). What do you think Jesus 😊❤ will do? In my ESV Study Bible in hands in Christ, it said, " Without severing his relationship with his earthly family( e.g, John 19:26-27; Acts 1:14; 1 Corinthiansb 15:7), Jesus(😊1st❤) emphasizes the priority😊❤ of the messianic community of faith😊❤( from Exodus 32:25-29; Deuteronomy 33:8-9) as the core family😊❤ of God( God😊100%❤ our Father😊100%❤ in heaven.): ( when Jesus😊1st❤ said, in Mark 3:35a " For whoever😊❤ does the will😊❤ of God( God our Father😊100%❤ in heaven),..."(from Mark 3:35a ESV Study Bible😊❤)( Doing God's will😊❤ in Christ😊❤ by His grace( Ephesians 2:8😊❤; 2 Corinthians 12:9😊❤ ) in Christ it can related to the following Scriptures in Christ. Matthew 6:10 " 10 Your kingdom come, Your will😊❤ be done😊❤ , on earth😊❤ as it is in heaven😊❤."( Matthew 6:10 ESV Study Bible) John 7:17( whoever does the will😊❤ of God😊100%❤) under the context of John 7:1-24( Jesus😊1st❤ at the Feast of Booths) John 7:17 "17 If anyone😊❤'s will😊❤ is to do God's will😊❤, he 😊❤ will know😊❤ whether the teaching😊❤ is from God( God 😊100%❤ our Father😊100%❤ in heaven) or whether I am speaking😊❤ on my own authority."( John 7:17 ESV Study Bible. Amen in Christ😊❤ ) Thank you God for your given Words to us from the Bible. In Jesus'name, i pray( Romans 12:2😊❤; 1 Peter 4:2😊❤ and amen to doing God's will 😊❤ in Christ😊❤ ). Amen. Romans 12:2 "2 Do not conformed to this world, but😊❤ be😊❤ transformed( 😊❤ or changed😊❤) by the renewal😊❤ of your( "your" or our) mind😊❤, that by testing😊❤ you may😊❤ discern😊❤ what is the will😊❤ of God( God😊100%❤ our Father in heaven), what is good😊❤ and acceptable😊❤ and perfect(😊100%❤)."( Romans 12:2 ESV Study Bible. Amen in Christ😊❤). Still relate to God's will😊❤ scripture in Christ under the context and content of 1 Peter 4:1-11( Stewards(😊❤'s) of God's grace😊❤) 1 Peter 4:2 "2 so as to live for the rest in the flesh no longer for human passion but😊❤ for the will😊❤ of God( God😊100%❤, our Father😊100%❤ in heaven❤)."( 1 Peter 4:2 ESV Study Bible) In Mark 3:35b "... he 😊❤ is my brother😊❤ and sister😊❤ and mother😊❤."( from Mark 3:35 b ESV Study Bible) Psalm 22:23😊❤ "23 You who😊❤ fear the LORD😊❤, praise him😊❤!

I listen to many Bible teachers to get closer to what God is teaching me personally. I return again & jot notes as I find little nuggets to help me along this crazy path of life. I adore listening to a OK cattle farmer, Les Feldick, with his blackboard teach the Scriptures. I also listen to John P. Life’s too short to nitpick everything. Just don’t listen to those you don’t like or you disagree with! Simple as that..

Piper, it is a pity I see you and can only think about your assertion that the deaths of millions of people was of less importance than your ephemeral goal of keeping one man out of office for four years. It rather makes anything you say sound sickeningly insincere.
