As we Follow the Lord, one of the hallmarks that comes with our faith is Joy! It comes from Knowing, Loving and Serving our Merciful and All Forgiving God! The Knowledge that Confidence that we are Constantly in His Presence, an Awareness that we are NEVER alone in this life provides this Joy and Peace that only He can provide! ! "His Joy is in us, that our Joy may be complete!" It comes from within and is not contingent on what is happening around us! This type of Joy runs deep, it can even coexist with sorrow, pain worry and fear! It is a Gift from God and cannot be taken away- but we must Acknowledge, Receive it and allow it to flow through us and from us! Stay focused and fulfilled-as we spread Joy wherever we go today! Love and prayers! ✝️
