Key Takeaways:

• Joy, as described in the Bible, is a profound, abiding presence not dependent on external circumstances.

• Jesus invites us to abide in Him, which allows His joy to remain in us and our joy to be full.

• The concept of abiding involves daily engagement with God's word and being receptive to His presence.

• True joy is an inherent gift from Jesus, not something that needs to be manufactured or earned.

• Remaining in Jesus’ love, especially during trials, anchors the soul to an unmovable foundation.

Notable Quotes:

• "His joy remaining in me, so that my joy may be full."

• "It's about receiving what only he can give."

• "These things I've spoken to you, that my joy may remain in you and that your joy may be full."

• "Joy. True joy lives in us."

• "In his presence there is fullness of joy."
