searching for joy

The Lord our God is with you, He is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, he will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing. Zephaniah 3:17

A woman of true beauty offers others the grace to be and the room to become.
Captivating: unveiling the mystery of a woman's soul, p 135

Sometimes we learn by our mistakes. Sometimes we make the mistakes over and over. We cry out, "why do I keep doing this?" As we struggle with our faults and those of others we need to remember how much God loves us and rest in His faithful, unfailing love. Make space for teaching moments in yourself and others.

Search for joy in all circumstances. Choose a cheerful heart vs. the poor me attitude. Practice being cheerful. Practice smiling. Practice being thankful. Count your blessings and rest in the Lord for He is with you. He delights in you. He will quiet you with His love. He will rejoice over you with singing. He is mighty to save.
