Googling "joy in the midst of"

As I've prepared my sermons each week during Advent, one of the things I've done is to simply google the title of my sermon to see what pops up.  What is it that people are seeking to experience Advent, Hope, Love, Joy, or Peace in the midst of?

Here are 15 of this week's top results listed in alphabetical order for "joy in the midst of":

Adversity

Death

Distress

Grief

Hardship

Heartache

Oppression

Pain

Sickness

The Storm

Suffering

Terror

Tragedy

Trials

Trouble

What's amazing to me is how similar the lists have looked each week.  How, indeed, are we to experience joy in the midst of this difficult journey we call life?  On what basis can we rejoice?  In whom are we to rejoice?
