source of abundant joy~

(pages from my three hearts journal - i love this project)

A beautiful weekend of sunshine. A time of great gratitude for warmth -- this winter went too long.   

Finally a time of green growth, dirt in our fingernails, sweat on our brows, pink noses and bare feet.  And delicious color (my eyes were snow filled).  Thank you God for this yummy season~   

I have spent this weekend...

pondering...

creating...
weeding...and feeding lambs...

hoping...

writing...

believing...

seeking...

Reading...

"The undiminished radiance, which is the result of abundant joy, is not built on anything passing, but on the love of God that nothing can change.  And the experiences of life, whether they are everyday events or terrifying ones, are powerless to 'separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord' " 

("My Utmost for His Highest" by Oswald Chambers and Romans 8)

"In all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us"

  

Regardless the summer chores ahead, the hardships to face this week, or the simply the overwhelming urge to just run around in the sprinklers all day...

"Nothing can separate us from the love of God which in in Christ Jesus our Lord"  

I love that...

May you feel His abundant joy today, too,
