Your hearts will rejoice, and no one will take your joy from you.
Jn.16:22
Jesus tells his followers sorrow does not have the final word. Their sorrow at his death will turn into joy at his resurrection.
This lies at the heart of my Christian faith. Yes we experience sorrow, but we don't stay there. The joy that awaits on the other side of sorrow is a joy no one can take from us.
"Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting?" 1Cor.15:5.
