Joy


Joy is the most infallible sign of the presence of God. 
—  Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

Joy is interesting. You cannot make it or pursue it. It is something that comes as a result of being other-directed because you are Other-focused.

Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
—Philippians 4:4-7
