Yesterday was a glorious spring day, holding all the promise of the days to come. It was easy to rejoice in the Lord in the sunshine and in the warm spring breezes. But JOY is available every day.
We just watched Pollyanna together in homeschool, as we are studying the 1910's and the movie is set in 1912. The sweet movie as with the book it is based upon teaches much about joy and gladness. It points out that there are over 800 "glad verses" in the Bible.... revealing God's Will for us. Pollyanna finds a way to be glad through all circumstances, teaching us all a bit about living a life of joy. If you have not seen this movie you simply must.. or read the book... and spend some time in God's Word noticing all the verses about joy and gladness.
No matter the world's circumstances and difficulties, look to the skies and to God's creation, to your loved ones, and to God Himself... and REJOICE!
