“We know that joy is a gift that we cannot earn, but we do tend to seek it in superficial ways that don’t require much of us. We want good feelings that bypass any pain. But this type of feeling is fleeting. Deep everlasting joy is developed over time from submitting to and embracing hardship, from wrestling with suffering, and from the willingness to sacrifice and be inconvenienced.”
