What brings a tear of joy (TOJ) to your eye?

Even now, when I know by God’s AMAZING grace, where I am currently and where He has promised I shall be. The tears run freely!
To understand the adoption process, tears flow freely with gratitude…
Happy tears happen when you experience emotions so intense they become unmanageable. When these emotions begin to overwhelm you, you might cry or scream (perhaps both) in order to help get those emotions out.
And we pray:
Dear Heavenly Father,
I come before You in Jesus’ Name. Father God, thank You for standing by me so many times. Thank You that You have never left me, and You’ve never forsaken me. Thank You for being so faithful to me; that You have comforted me in my afflictions and have seen me through, even when I couldn’t take care of myself.
Father God, I believe Your Word that says You desire to give me beauty for the ashes of my life. I believe Your Word that all those who sow in tears–including me–shall doubtless come again rejoicing, bringing the sheaves of harvest with them.
Father, I receive Your promise right now. I lift it back up to You, for I need You to do for me what You have promised. So Father God, in The Name of Jesus:
Please take my tears away and fill me with Your joy.
Fill me with Your Holy Spirit, for I know that He brings joy with Him. Let the fruit of The Spirit–Love, joy, peace, holy fierceness, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control–be powerfully and clearly demonstrated in my life. I pray 🙏🏾 in Jesus’ Name, Amen.
