Butler II "Army Chaplain" Tue, 01 Jan 2013 09:14:53 +0000 http://joys.net/836/joy-9/#comment-691 Absolutely fantastic! After nearly twelve months of chaplain ministry in the war-torn nation of Afghanistan it seemed Joy had all but abandoned me. The eloquence of this author’s writing confronted me with gentle conviction allowing the power of God’s word to cleanse and heal my troubled soul.Joy found me in the midst of my trials, hardships, bitterness, anger and despair. Joy brought comfort to my hurt and challenged me to embrace my hardships as God’s way of conforming me to image and ministry of Christ. Joy found me in the shadows of despair and uplifted me into the light of my Savior’s love. Joy encouraged me and challenged me to shout and praise in spite of my present circumstances.Today is a new day and my Joy has returned.

I did like the reflections at the back of each chapter. Bringing out each point of Joy showing what man thinks and what God thinks, puts thing into perspective. I now have a greater understanding and appreciation for Joy as God gives it.
