Joy
I am a joyful child of God.
When I look at the sky, the trees, the land or into the eyes of someone I love, I experience the wonder of life. Noticing the simple blessings that surround me here and now, I tap into my inner wellspring of joy.
One joyful thought starts a chain reaction, just as the song of a bird at dawn invites others to join in. I choose to cultivate joy, to count my blessings and to share this feeling with others.
A joyous state of mind opens me to divine ideas and substance. I see new ways to express my potential and new opportunities to experience life as a joyful child of God.
"For you shall go out in joy ... the mountains and the hills before you shall burst into song."--Isaiah 55:12.Inspired by this message? Want to talk to friends about it? Share your thoughts here.Search past Daily Word messages by date, topic or keyword. Visit the archive.
