Episode 166: Reclaim Your JOY

My experience has shown me over and over again. Joy comes from the simple things. Stop chasing the worldly distractions, and embrace what is right in front of you. God. The day. Your home. Your family. Yourself. The present. Nature. Outside. Being able to drive your kids somewhere. Being able to parent your kids through hard times. Navigating their ups and downs. You were given that role. It is a blessing. If you don’t believe me…back off of social media. Say no to anything that doesn’t shout hell yeah this week. Smell the flowers. Sit in the sunshine. Walk through the grass. Take a deep breath. Call your mom. Or dad, if you can. Hug your family. The only way to true JOY is through God and living in the present. Embracing what you have. **Challenge: **Seek out JOY and simple God given blessings this week Resources: Bible Daily Surrender Journal
