Joy

I have been reading a new devotional and it has been pretty helpful.

Today, I read about finding joy in the middle of your pain.

It doesn’t necessarily mean you are moving on, etc., it means your are trusting again in god and being faithful to him. You have decided to find joy and still live with the loss.

It was so hard for me to want to do anything to make me smile, I felt life wasn’t fair.

Sometimes, I still do but, I also know that God has me and keeping my faith in him and becoming closer to him can help me so much.

I can maybe teach others , learn and show that joy is okay to have.

I don’t know the why of Lezlie leaving this Earth so soon but, it wasn’t because God needed her or it was just her time or there has to be a good reason. I don’t know and you can tell me what you think, it doesn’t work like that. Our days are numbered and as much as it breaks my heart she isn’t here, I have to stop questioning God.

Yes, it’s hard to do.

Yes, it’s hard to smile and have Joy.

What I do know is this, God wants us to find joy and I bet Lezlie does too.

Find joy, it may take a moment but it can be done.

Psalms 126:5 ”they that sow in tears shall reap in joy.”
