Pleasure depends on circumstances, but Christian joy is completely independent of health, money, or surroundings.

Billy Graham
About This Quote

I’ve always been a believer in the saying: “Pleasure depends on circumstances, but Christian joy is completely independent of health, money, or surroundings.” The idea of Christian joy is something that is constant and independent of circumstance. There is no guarantee that you will be happy or that you will be miserable. However, if you are living for God and having fun with God, the things that go along with those joys of life will be enjoyable whether you are rich or poor, sick or healthy, happy or sad.
