Our lives are a journey that we walk together not in order to become "good christian women," but rather to draw near to God so that we can reflect His light to those around us. Our stories, our paths, our dreams and our message are all unique. But we hold hands and walk boldly, fearlessly......onward...creating joy, hope, faith and peace in our wake.

the joy.

joy is found in such simple things.
joy.  deep seated.  easy.  no struggle.
in the seemingly mundane.  but it's there.  if you look. even in the beauty of mottled paint.  and foam just so on a latte.
a sunset.  a parting goodbye with the promise of a glorious return the next day.  beauty full.  joy full.
flowers that dot a rustic trail. swaying. dancing. inviting a moment to rest and drink in the nectar of peace.
the company of a friend...who, though different from you, stands by you every single day.  

music.  stirring.  blessing.  awakening.  something to touch the places inside that need comforting. 
family.  crazy. silly.  disorganized. laughing. fun. weird. relaxed. gentle. understanding. forgiving. full of the very best kind of joy.  

JOY FULL.
life is full of joy.
but we have to choose to receive it in the forms which it comes to us. once we do, there is new vision.  new life.  there are offshoots of joy.....peace and happiness.  life is made full by the joy we choose to discover.
grace to you.
