Where Is Joy?

I have watched her for forty years as she moves thru the day.  Beautiful… heart of gold… and a love for God.  I am so blessed! I look at pictures of my children and grandkids.  All healthy… all good and loving people.  I am so blessed!  I behold the land that we have been made stewards of.  The feeling of peace and the presence of God is in this place.  I am so blessed!  I ponder the company that belongs to God, that he allows us to reside over.  The amazing people that work there and the help the company gives to them.  I am so blessed!  I think on my friends… my church… and the comfort they give.  I am so blessed!  The health that we enjoy and the love that fills our home.  I am so blessed!  We live our lives not knowing what is around the next corner.  We are not sure what tomorrow holds and if our world will fall apart.  If everything I just mentioned crumbled like a stale cookie, I would still be so blessed.  Blessed to know the love of God.  Blessed to have experienced so much favor.  Blessed to live a life of peace and love.  Blessed to be allowed to reveal Gods heart through Happy Jesus Day!  I encourage you to spend your day looking to everything he has blessed you with.  As Jiminy Cricket says:  “accentuate the positive and eliminate the negative”.  You will find joy in those moments. 

2 Corinthians 9:8

I Love You!

Christ Light!

The moon… cold and void… moved in line with the sun.  Our sun.  The source of light and human existence.  The star that shines the light of Gods’ brilliance and provides life energy to everything it illuminates.  On that day recently, and only for a brief moment, the moon covered the Sun.  The feeling was…

Christ Deserves Better!

They knew what he had done. They had seen the healing.  They had witnessed the miracles. They had heard of the dead rising.  So a hero’s welcome… a kings honor.  The robes from their backs, and palm leaves paved his way.  Put yourself in Jesus place.  Not wanting the spot light, but knowing the king’s…

Hug Day!

Thursday is hug day for me.   Every Thursday for several years now I go by the place where our son and daughter work and I give them a hug.  Today as I hugged my amazing children I thought of how deep my love is for them.   I then thought of our God.  As…

Bone Deep Love!

As we all sit in a circle the question was; “what do you get from your spouse”?  After listening to all the desires, all the wants from the others, I simply answered “I expect nothing from Lorna except to love me”.  Love is a free choice.  As the two of us are soulmates, our love…
