God is joy, and the joy of living reflects the original joy that God felt in creating us.\u201d \u2014Pope Saint John Paul II<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201cEverything if given to God can become your gateway to joy.\u201d \u2014Elisabeth Elliot<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201cMan cannot live without joy; therefore when he is deprived of true spiritual joys, it is necessary that he become addicted to carnal pleasures.\u201d \u2014Thomas Aquinas<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201cJoy is not necessarily the absence of suffering, it is the presence of God.\u201d \u2014Sam Storms<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201cIf we wish to serve God and love our neighbor well, we must manifest our joy in the service we render to Him and them. Let us open wide our hearts. It is joy which invites us. Press forward and fear nothing.\u201d \u2014Saint Katharine Drexel&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201cThe aim of life is to live, and to live means to be aware; joyously, drunkenly, serenely, divinely aware.\u201d \u2014Henry Miller<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201cSpiritual joy arises from purity of heart and perseverance of prayer.\u201d \u2014Francis of Assisi<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201cMan is more himself, man is more manlike, when joy is the fundamental thing in him, and grief the superficial.

Chesterton<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201cJoy is the infallible sign of God\u2019s presence.\u201d \u2014Pierre Teihard de Chardin&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201cThe true way to advance in holy virtues, is to persevere in a holy cheerfulness.\u201d \u2014Saint Philip Neri&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201cDo not think only of your own joy, but vow to save all beings from suffering. This is sharing in its highest form and purity beyond all poisons of this world.\u201d \u2014Dalai Lama<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201cWhen you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving in you, a joy.\u201d \u2014Rumi<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201cWe are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves.\u201d \u2014Gautama Buddha<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201cJoy is everywhere; it is in the earth\u2019s green covering of grass; in the blue serenity of the sky; in the reckless exuberance of spring; in the severe abstinence of grey winter; in the living flesh that animates our bodily frame; in the perfect poise of the human figure, noble and upright; in living, in the exercise of all our powers; in the acquisition of knowledge; in fighting evils\u2026. Joy is there everywhere.\u201d \u2014Rabindranath Tagore<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-finding-joy-will-help-you-choose-and-spread-happiness\">Finding Joy Will Help You Choose And Spread Happiness<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you\u2019ve harnessed the energy that accompanies joy, you\u2019ll discover that it is a boundless and renewable resource.
