Based on Psalm 30. Finding Joy After a Long, Dark Night
We have God’s joy in our blood.
So says the writer Frederick Buechner in his book Longing for Home: Recollections and Reflections.
God created us in joy and created us for joy, and in the long run not all the darkness there is in the world and in ourselves can separate us finally from that joy.
In the end, Buechner writes, joy is our home.
