You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore.
- Psalm 16:11 (NKJV)
Happy New Year!
It’s weird, when I sent my last daily bread of 2024, I was not in a good place.
I was very sad; I did not feel as though God was part of my life anymore.
After a very tumultuous Christmas adventure, I felt further from God than I ever had.
But God.
I think that might be my theme for 2025 – But God.
Sometimes, we are in the right place at the right time, and it feels like God just smacks you in the forehead.
That happened to me the first few days of this year.
See, we are not always going to have joy, life isn’t all rainbows and unicorns.
But if we look, we can find a little joy in everything.
My sadness was an accident that occurred right before Christmas, but my joy was spending more time with family as a result.
It was sad that my last weekend on vacation was so cold, buy my joy was seeing the first snowflakes of the year with my husband by my side.
There is sadness all over the world due to loss, illness, financial stress, but if we can find that glimmer of joy in each moment, we can hold on to that joy.
We can find joy in a moment, that leads to joy for an hour, then a day, and soon multiple days of joy.
I found my joy.
Have you?
