Joy Unspeakable

"You love him even though you have never seen him. Though you do not see him now, you trust him; and you rejoice with a glorious inexpressible joy. The reward for trusting him will be the salvation of your souls."
1 Peter 1:8-9

This - when you can't explain to another the experience you have that gets you hooked on Jesus.  When you know that you know... but can't explain it in terms that someone who doesn't know will understand.  When the educated and intellectual try to explain away the faith we have been given - this. 

"And if someone asks about your hope as a believer, always be ready to explain it."
1 Peter 3:15

How do you express the inexpressible?  Joy surely must be part of the light of Christ that shines brightly through our brokenness.  Cling to your joy my friends.  It is the thread that holds your explanation together for others to see.
