Pastor Hana’s Weekly Reflection on Joy

 Choose joy—God’s not done yet.

Think about the moment you get good news. Like when you open an acceptance letter, hear a friend is coming home, or get that long-awaited message. Your whole mood changes instantly. That’s what Christmas joy is like.

When the angels appeared to the shepherds, they said, “I bring you good news of great joy!” 

Real joy isn’t based on circumstances, it’s rooted in God’s presence. Jesus came to bring a joy that lasts beyond the moment, a joy that holds steady even when life gets hard.

Joy reminds us that the story isn’t over. God is still at work, and His goodness always wins.

What’s one reason you can choose joy today, no matter what’s happening around you?
