Strange as it may sound, we can choose joy. Two people can be part of the same
event, but one may choose to live it quite differently than the other. One may
choose to trust that what happened, painful as it may be, holds a promise. The
other may choose despair and be destroyed by it.
-- Henri Nouwen
2 My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, 3 knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. 4 But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.
-- James 1:2-4 (NKJV)

Joy does not simply happen to us. We have to choose joy and keep choosing it every day. — Henri Nouwen
And that choice, at least, gets easier as we make it by habit.
Amen and Amen.
