Joy is defined as a feeling of great pleasure and happiness. Although, this sounds pleasant and a great state to be in, some people lack joy. Can you believe that there are people that don’t allow themselves to experience great pleasure or happiness? They allow circumstances and situations to play a role in how happy or how sad they are. Joy is actually a choice. Two people can be experiencing the same obstacle and one may be happy during that time. The other person may look at the obstacle as defeat and allow it to rob them of their joy. Yes, we are all human and we do face trying situations, but we must learn to look at the big picture and try hard to maintain a positive outlook on every situation. It is surely easier said that than done. Trust me, I know. What good is going through a situation and then once it’s over you are in the hospital because you have ulcers from stress? This is why you must trust God that everything will be ok. Putting your trust in God will allow you to experience that peace that surpasses all understanding. Remember that your attitude determines your latitude. The joy of the Lord is your strength. Continue to be encouraged and know that joy is what you must choose to have daily. What brings you joy? What challenges do you need to reevaluate? What is your outlook on that situation? Are you choosing joy over sadness? #love #blessings#amazing-grace#positive-mind#God’sGotIt#stayfocused#love
