Heart of Thanks: Day 7



SUNDAYS!!!! 

They are my favorite!!! 

Even though I had my alarm set for early, I snoozed one too many times to get my workout in this morning. 

Headed off to Sunday School and morning worship, followed by lunch with family! 

Brought the kiddos to a birthday party this afternoon and attended a wonderful heart-check-up church service tonight! 

Grabbed a mile run at the gym and headed home for some sweet yoga!!! 

It wasn't a "I haaaaaaaave to!" I was actually looking FORWARD to getting my yoga time in!!!

Today My Heart Focus is the source of my Joy. I am ever so thankful for my relationship with Jesus Christ. 

This morning my Sunday School lesson was about JOY. The difference between Happiness and Joy... 

Happiness comes and goes with the happenstance of life-- JOY is deep rooted in the heart and it's true source is JESUS CHRIST! Through every hardship and life, we have hope for our future. We can hold to God and the Joy He's put in our hearts! 

We are emotional creatures by design. Our emotions are all too often on a roller coaster... It never takes long for something to happen and change our emotions--- happy, sad, mad, angry, frustrated, depressed...

When we step outside of our own mentality and take on the mind of Christ, we can walk in Joy, live in Joy... And honestly make it a lifestyle. Is it easy? No. Impossible? No. Not with Jesus. He can bring everlasting joy to anyone's life.
