Well, now that's out of the way, I'll try to catch y'all up on my world the past couple of weeks. My friend, Allison, one amazing wedding weekend that was beautiful from beginning to end...
It's been a blessing to be apart of their journey so far and to celebrate them on the day that changed their lives.
Another thing I've learned as the days of 2012 have flown by, is that happiness and joy are not synonymous. Being happy is an emotion that can change depending on the moment; joy is a gift from God that no one or nothing can take from you. Joy is what gets us through the day and it's our choice to recognize that. Work, family, friends, finances, (insert whatever else), can effect our mood or our day, but it's our choice on whether or not those things effect our lives.
In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.
- John 16:33
So, my challenge to myself, and to you, is to choose joy over whatever the world wants to hurl toward me. I'll try my hardest to catch it and deal with it, but I know that I'm not alone in that game of catch. God's hands are bigger, stronger and more reliable than mine could ever be.
