Where Real Joy Comes

Luke 10:21 In that hour Jesus rejoiced in the Spirit...

These subtle but power insights must be expounded upon.  They are for our great benefit to understand.  We must not just explain the experiences of Jesus away as just between Him & His Father.  He has given us a blueprint, a pattern if you will, on how we are to experience life with the Father.
Jesus rejoiced in the Spirit.  This is the only source of true joy.  Nehemiah stated, it is the joy of the LORD which is our strength.  Jesus mentioned, the kingdom of God is righteousness, peace, & joy in the Holy Spirit.  The reason I often fail to have any of those three is because Im not in the Spirit, but the flesh.  As a Christian, I need to live in the Spirit and when I do, I will be blessed with this trifecta.  
Are you experiencing a joy filled life right now?  Not void of trials, because you can experience joy in the midst of trials with the Spirit.  But joy and wholesome satisfaction that the Spirit is leading you in life.  
What is the source that keeps you from His joy?  Fixing your face upon Jesus?  Maybe try making more time in communion with the Father as Jesus did on a regular basis.  Oh, and I'm fully applying my words here to myself as well.  The circumstances of this life is so depressing at best.  The hope of my future is joyous!
