JOY    by Christy English
In Your Presence is fullness of Joy
Psalm 16:11

Joy is.  .  .  . walking in the peace and grace of a fully acknowledged Christian walk.  It is accepting God’s plan for your life without reservation and trusting God fully for every twist and turn along the way.  It is giving everything you have for His cause and knowing your sacrifices, late nights, and lonely roads are making a difference.  Joy is dancing in His freedom until you are breathless.  It is singing His praise until your voice is gone. 

Joy is.  .  . sharing giggles with your children and rubbing your husband’s back.  It is making your home a quiet refuge from the loud, distracting world outside.  It is having a fan club when you come home who will cheer for you just because you are “you” and nothing more.  It is sharing dreams with someone who will soar with you.  It is holding hands and getting butterflies.  It is swinging so high that you forget you came to the park for the kids’ sake.
