The Joy of the Lord (Classic Reprint)
by J.R. Miller
Excerpt from The Joy of the Lord
Far more earnestly than we know does God want us to be happy. It grieves a true human father to see his children unhappy. Our heavenly Father is pained and disappointed when his children on the earth are discontented and anxious, or when they do not rejoice. This little book is a call to joy, to Christian joy, and to joy that will make joy in others.
