Day 22: The Greatest Joy
Spiritual joys surpass all worldly pleasures.
Wisdom from Brother Lawrence
He shared that the greatest pains or pleasures of this world could not compare to what he had experienced of both in a spiritual state. As a result, he was untroubled by anything and feared nothing, asking God for only one thing: that he might not offend Him.
Scripture
Psalm 4:7-8
You have put more joy in my heart than they have when their grain and new wine abound. I will both lie down and sleep in peace, for you alone, LORD, make me live in safety.
