Some thoughts revisited from February of 2017 that are still valid this year in 2024 enJOY!

JOY in Our Life: It is thought, by some people, that going to "church" is a boring, joyless experience. I suppose that can be true but when it comes down to it, it all depends on what you put into the experience. You do get what you think you will get. In our service on Feb. 12 we focussed on love and availing ourselves of all the benefits of meeting together as part of the family of God. We worshipped, sang, prayed, and had a delicious meal together. We celebrated family, unity, love and freedom. Hey, the pastor even wore a great big, floppy hat covered with hearts and handed out heart shaped cookies and cheerful valentine cards. I believe all in attendance would attest to having had a JOYful time together. JOY comes from the heart and is present wherever you are if you have it within you to give. An organization used to have a slogan that went something like, "Blood - it's in you to give." How about a slogan such as, "JOY - it's in you to give! Give generously!"

JOY in Our Life is boosted when we are thankful, grateful and appreciative. 'tis the Canadian Thanksgiving weekend. Did you know that your JOY reservoir levels become even more FULL when you are thankFULL, grateFULL and appreciative?

When you sit down to enJOY what you consider to be your Thanksgiving meal, make it your aim to not just leave the table physically full, but spiritually FULL. JOYFULL with double LLs When you ask God to "give this day our daily bread," do not just ask for your food, but ask for the spiritual food God gives you. Ask for large helpings of the fruits given by Holy Spirit. Receive generous helpings of fruits known as love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self- control.

Hey, ask for the whole orchard! Tend your orchard daily so your harvest and your JOY reservoirs will be FULL, not just your belly!

Even if you have nobody to share the holiday occasion with, Happy JOYfull Thanksgiving which you can share with everyone around you every day. I invite any readers from any country to celebrate Thanksgiving virtually with me.

Please help me share my JOY and you share your JOY by loving and sharing this post.
