The Joy of Advent!

Walk in His Joy

Minute by Minute!

Here we are in the third week of Advent already!  I pray that amidst the preparations for Christmas you are staying focused on the real ‘reason for the season.’  May this phrase never become a cliché that is spoken in haste without a real understanding and depth of awareness of Jesus Christ this season and always.  May He reign in your heart and bring immeasurable joy minute by minute into your life.

Joy is the focus of this third week of Advent.  Joy is a feeling of great happiness.  Joy is exhilarating.  Joy

The Sparrow’s Eggs

Jpeg

The Birth of

A New Season!

Daily Inspiration-Enjoy Your Present!

Love

The choice

To hold on to

Bitterness and resentment

Will weigh you down

I thought not.

Release the past

So you can enjoy

Your present!
