This verse came to light to me in the year 2000, my husband had been crushed between two cars. We thought he would never walk again, he was in the hospital for months on end. He had eighteen surgeries on one leg, not counting the other. The aftercare was intense because he was still on a wheelchair. Our little girl and I would trek to the hospital daily. I was studying the book of Job before and at the beginning of the accident, I had asked God to believe in me like He believed in Job. Little did I know what that would look like! After the accident our Thursday women's group was studying the book of James and this resonated in my heart. Joy, I was able to find.... There has been many things that have come sense that but my fall safe is to consider it joy! He gives me peace in the midst of the storms because I know who controls the winds. Persecuted but not abandoned! Let joy reign in your heart and you will have peace! His words are true! I can testify! I have tasted and it is good!
