Joy. It’s more than happy.
Happy relies on good circumstances that can crumble in a moment. But joy.
Joy bubbles from deep places and does not rely on the fleeting satisfaction this world offers.
Joy isn’t something we can force or muster. It simply is a fruit of the Spirit.
Grab a pen, jot down these verses and meet each day with the source of eternal joy.

When we practice the discipline of slowing down enough to “be where your feet are” we see with totally new eyes. Thanks for the great reminder, Andy. See you soon at Florida Christian Writers Conference!
I needed these joy vitamins. Blessings.
