It is an unfortunate thing for the Chritian to be melancholy. If there is any man in the world that has right to have a bright, clear face and a flashing eye, it is the man whose sins are forgiven him, who is saved with God`s salvation. (Charles Spurgeon)
Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God`s will for you in Christ Jesus. (1Thessalonians 5:16-18)

Life is a happy thing, a festival to be enjoyed rather than a drudgery to be endured. (Luci Swindoll)
Joy is not the same as pleasure or happiness. Pleasure generally comes from things, and always through the senses; joy comes from loving God and neighbour. Pleasure is quick and violent, like a flash of lightning. Joy is steady and abiding, like a fixed star. (Fulton J. Sheen)
The cheerful person will do more in the same time, will do it better, will persevere in it longer, than the sad or sullen person. (Thomas Carlyle)
A joyful servant of God is a net to catch souls for God. (Mother Teresa)
