Joy Comes in the Mourning!

Today I woke up joyful and ready to conquer the day. By all rights, I could be sad since tomorrow is my husband’s funeral. People would understand if I wept and wailed, but I woke up with Psalms 30 in my mind. Joy comes in the morning! And joy comes in the MOURNING!

Psalms 30 says,

1 I will exalt you, LORD, for you lifted me out of the depths and did not let my enemies gloat over me.

2 LORD my God, I called to you for help, and you healed me.

3 You, LORD, brought me up from the realm of the dead; you spared me from going down to the pit.

4 Sing the praises of the LORD, you his faithful people; praise his holy name.

5 For his anger lasts only a moment, but his favor lasts a lifetime; weeping may remain for a night, but rejoicing comes in the morning.

6 When I felt secure, I said, “I will never be shaken.”

7 LORD, when you favored me, you made my royal mountain stand firm; but when you hid your face, I was dismayed.

8 To you, LORD, I called; to the Lord I cried for mercy:

9 “What is gained if I am silenced, if I go down to the pit? Will the dust praise you? Will it proclaim your faithfulness?

10Hear, LORD, and be merciful to me; LORD, be my help.”

11 You turned my wailing into dancing; you removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy,

12 that my heart may sing your praises and not be silent. LORD my God, I will praise you forever.

You see, I miss my husband terribly. I would give anything for him to still be by my side. However, it was God’s will to heal my husband in heaven. I rejoice that my husband is healed. He’s no longer in pain. He’s no longer suffering. Cancer no longer has a stronghold on him. How can I not be happy about that? So you see, there IS joy in the mourning!

Divas, my prayer for you is that you too will find JOY…unspeakable joy! Supernatural joy! Whether you are on high on the mountaintop or low in the valley of life, there is joy! I encourage you to remain faithful and to stay on course. The world needs YOU!!

Until next time, wear your heels well and know that I love you!!
