"You have given me greater joy
than those who have abundant harvests of grain and new wine.
In peace I will lie down and sleep,
for you alone, O LORD, will keep me safe."
The joy, peace and security found in trusting God is greater and better than the joy that comes from having abundance. Imagine that! This does acknowledge that joy can come from abundance, but there is an inner abundance that comes from pleasing God and trusting him. You can experience this joy despite being in debt, poor health, or troubling circumstances. Circumstances will change—for better or worse—but God never does. That's why we can trust him through anything.
