But Christ came so that we would have life abundant in Him.[6] He delighted over children, over meals with friends, over people coming to faith, over people being healed, over wine at a wedding. He said to His disciples, “These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full.”[7] Full of joy. Joy is a fruit of the Spirit, and it is a gift from God. We reflect His image when we feel joy.
