“Pleasure is always derived from something outside you, whereas joy arises from within.” Eckhart Tolle

“The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace patience…” Gal.5

Everything of lasting value, love, joy, peace and patience, all rise from within us not from our circumstances. This truth alone highlights the great value of nurturing our inner life. This is why God puts a greater emphasis on what happens in us than around us. Of course, He often uses pressures without to stimulate trust within. Conversations Within” ts 11/6/2014
