What an honest explanation of joy and happiness

[@stevenodell7662]

I have felt to sing the song of redeeming joy. It is transcendent and beyond description. My very spirit sought to sing praises to the Lord for his purchase of my soul from sin and hell. I felt a small portion of the pains my sins caused him in Gethsemane and it made me beg forgiveness again and again. I wanted to see the face if my Savior but was told to be the face of the Savior in this world, to reflect his love to others.

Não há nenhuma ligação nesta vida entre proteção divina e não temer que não esteja relacionado a preparação a revelação de Deus e seguir os mandamentos do Senhor. Os profetas ensinam que "se estiveres preparados não temereis", (me lembro que uma amiga compartilhou comigo antes de partir para Portugal sua decisão com essa resposta de sua oração). Então vêm aquela reflexão num momento alarmante: Estou realmente preparado? Bem, nossos medos estarão sempre à prova? De olho no azeite na lâmpada, da alegria do Senhor eu tenho a sua promessa do Pai Celeste de tirar tudo que preciso, e nunca desconfio da verdade. Estava pensando nos pais e pensei: será que eles esperam ser admirados ou abençoados ou elogiados pelo Senhor pelo que são que tenha mais significado do que a alegria de ser pais e ter os seus filhos no Convênio! Será que todos realmente sabem! Mas o que eles esperam não pode ser estar tão distante do que o Senhor espera a cada instante, a alegria e prazer num piscar de olhos seu pensar, de cada um de nós, alegria imortalidade, vida eterna!

Thank you

[@RabbiKolakowski]

Joy (one word for joy, there are many) is Chedvah not Chemdah. Chemdah means coveting.

[@byuspeeches]

Seems like some disagree, though Chedvah does mean joy, for sure. www.biblestudytools.com/lexicons/hebrew/nas/chemdah.html#:~:text=desire%2C%20that%20which%20is%20desirable,pleasant%2C%20precious
