How’s your joy? Could it be that, in these troubling times…this current situation…with the world-wide oppression of strange and ongoing circumstances…that you have lost a joyful heart?  Let the Lord restore the joy that should be yours…because of Jesus in your life. And if He’s not there, then invite Him in. Receive His joy…His salvation.

 

Psalm 51:12

Restore to me the joy of Your salvation And sustain me with a willing spirit.

 

Proverbs 17:22

A joyful, cheerful heart is good medicine, but a broken spirit dries up the bones.

 

“We need to laugh more. The enjoyment of the current moment is so often overshadowed by pressures from without and within. We postpone laughter because we don’t think we have earned the right to be happy. Or we are postponing laughter because we are waiting to turn a corner in our circumstances. Well we haven’t earned it and that’s one of the reasons why we can be so happy. It’s not attached to us or our circumstances. We are happy for other reasons. So go ahead and laugh; it’s good

medicine.” ~ John Fischer

 

The Lord bless you and keep you….
