Look Toward Your Joy

[Doris Trueheart]

The birthing process is very painful and comes with a risk of death to mother, child, or both. Is 54:1, sing, O barren woman...cry aloud, for you shall bear more children than the married woman. Make the sound of birthing. Though you travail in sorrow, when the child is born, you shall be filled with joy and so great shall be your joy that it will cause you to forget the pain you endured. Jesus endured the cross for the joy that was set before him. Set your eyes on Jesus. Look toward your joy.
