339: Rediscovering Joy (When You're Unsatisfied + Restless)
Manage episode 523259061 series 2801548
What do you do when life looks “fine on the outside,” yet something still feels off? When you feel flat, restless or like you’re quietly aching for more? In this episode, uncover what Scripture says about joy, why so many women feel unsatisfied even when life appears good, and how to return to a steady, soul-anchoring joy in Christ instead of chasing temporary emotional highs.
Learn the signs that you might be pursuing happiness instead of cultivating joy, how expectations distort contentment, and the biblical foundation for experiencing joy as a fruit of the Spirit.
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:
[00:00] Why joy can feel dim or distant even when life looks “good”
[01:30] What does Psalm 51:12 show us about losing the joy of salvation?
[03:00] How do hidden expectations quietly sabotage our joy?
[05:00] The difference between chasing emotional highs and cultivating Christ-centered joy
[08:00] Why joy anchors the soul rather than acting as a mood
[14:00] What is “destination sickness,” and why does it leave us restless?
[19:00] Why achievements and accomplishments can’t create lasting joy
[23:00] How to re-anchor your joy with Scripture, reflection, and spiritual truth
