Joy To The World

Ask yourself this question, “Do I have joy”? 
Probably, sure I can laugh at myself; or “Yes, I am happy”.
I am talking about the joy that gives “peace” of mind. The joy that no matter what you are going through in this lifetime, which comes in waves, you can rest knowing that everything is going to be alright.
Now, I didn’t say that you wouldn’t go through hardship, nor did I say that you wouldn’t suffer heartaches. 
This is our lot in life, we will all suffer at one time or another. It may be different things at different times, such as illness, the loss of your home, family, work, etc. This is called “life”. So how do you get through these times?
As I am reading the first few verses of Psalm 23 (which is one of the most recited psalms), I notice that verses 1 – 3 speaks of such a joy within your heart that no matter what I am enduring, I can find that place of quiet “joy”.

Psalm 23
A psalm of David.

Th       Lord is my shepherd;      
I have all that I need.
 He lets me rest in green meadows;
He leads me beside peaceful streams.        
He renews my strength.
He guides me along right paths, 
brings honor to his name. 
Even when I walk
through the darkest valley,
I will not be afraid, for you are close beside me.
Your rod and your staff  protect and comfort me.
How does these words and promises from God comfort you and reassure you that His thoughts for you are good and that He is with you now during these dark times?

You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you, all whose thoughts are fixed on you!
Listen to these amazing words from this song and allow the Holy Spirit to bless you..

Had a great “70th” birthday. Damn, how did I get here? But I am thankful for my wonderful life and my family! My cup overflows  with gratitude and blessings from God, as I get to share in your adult lives and get to cheer you both from the sidelines.. What a blessing it is to get this far in life and still enjoy making memories with y’all. My cup is full as I now have new family members; Janette & Camy, Jo, John and Erika. Let us daily thank God for His love towards us and may we continue to fall in love more with one another. My “Blessings” from  above “The Lord gives both death and life; He brings some down to the grave but raises others up”              1 Samuel 2:6  “He gives the childless woman a family, making her a happy mother”  Praise the Lord!  Psalm 113:9 “Naked I came  from my mother’s womb,  And naked shall I return there. The Lord gave, and the Lord has taken” This is Josh at the same age as his munc...

“We All Go The Way of Grace”

     Proverbs 21:22 “Whoever pursues righteous and unfailing love will find life, righteousness and honor” Father, Elohim,  “Thank you” 4 putting your wonderful creation together for all to enjoy and be rich by it all. Today in LA it has been raining, which is one thing we do not get much of .. but I “thank you” for it. It’s a time of slowing down.  It’s a time to sit and be still in the comfort of a warm home with family. I “thank you” Lord for the newness that comes with rain. It washes our soul and our mind.  We can take time to be still and reflect on where I AM .. where am I going .. and how to get there. The rain brings us to a stop and a moment to care about family, to look at ourselves and a chance for change, if needed. The rain heals the soul and lights it up with hope and freshness.  It’s a bath from head to toe that relaxes my spirit with the feeling of cleansing within me. Take time to enjoy this amazing season!  job leon https://yout...
