Just my thoughts:
I'm trading my sorrows,
I'm trading my shame,
I'm laying it down
For the joy of the Lord
I'm trading my sickness
I'm trading my pain
I'm laying it down,
For the joy of the Lord
Just imagine that you walk up to a "table of exchange" that the Lord has set before you. On that table is an abundance of His Joy. So at this "table of exchange" you begin to remove sorrow and lay it on the "table of exchange" and as you do His joy leaps off of the table and fills that void where sorrow had tried to decay you. As His joy fills that void healing begins to heal that wound and sorrow is no more. Then you remove shame and then sadness, etc. and every time you lay it on the "table of exchange", His joy becomes activated and leaps off of the table and on you. Strength becomes evident and the joy of the Lord sets your footsteps in place again for you to go about your Father's business. When you trade something for something else you no longer have ownership of it. You now have the ownership of what you traded for; which is the JOY OF THE LORD!!! Amen.
