Lewis said, Joy  is the serious business of heaven.? Too often, however, joy is missing from our lives. When we look to Scripture,  we see examples of early Christians thriving \u003ci\u003eeven\u003c\/i\u003e amid hardship and persecution.

When you look at life through the lens of your circumstances, what happens? You?re  happy when circumstances are good and sad or angry when they aren?t, right? But if you look at your circumstances  through the lens of God?s goodness?his power and promises?that?s a higher perspective. You can experience  joy because you know a good God is going to take even the worst and most difficult things in life and use them for your  good. Living above our circumstances occurs when our perspective interprets our circumstances rather than our circumstances  determining our perspective.?\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou cannot choose your life?s circumstances, but you can choose how  to respond.
