"Everyday joys abound. It's a matter of perspective. For every trial there is joy. For every loss there is a gain. Finding the benefits to typical challenges brings to focus the beauty of daily life.
The scent of a fresh breeze. The handshake of a friend. Sounds and sights. Aromas and textures. Life is a grand blessing, but it's one that is carefully made of tiny and simple joys.
Just like a mural, it is pieced together stroke by stroke with the light and dark elements living together ( one is never found without the other)." Thomas Kinkade
We need to open our eyes and hearts to these tiny but tangible building blocks that can create a world of celebration...and a life of possibilities.
Joy needs to be a part of our life every day. I know for myself, sometimes it's hard for me to find joy in a situation, but I always have to remember:
You may not find happiness in a certain situation, but you will always have JOY, if you have trusted your life, and it's care to the Shepherd.
