Joy, is the flag  flown high from the castle of my heart when the King is in residence there. (New harvest 19)
If we see, actually see aright then we know that this vast and beautiful land is packed with joy. Deep joy.It overflows with joy if we stop to take it in even from the smallest, tiniest wild flower to the stars that throb in uncountable numbers across the sky. I often think of the word 'joy' and try and define it and  I think its that  deep and wonderful feeling we have before it bursts into a blessing. It can be found hidden deep down in the heart of all things, even in the massive rocks of a mountain range, or the peeling bark of an ancient eucalyptus tree, to say nothing of the sunrise as the day dawns. Joy, delight, blessings. That's how I think it goes.
Grace and peace from our Lord Jesus Christ
Anne, servant of the Lord

joy, delight, blessings. A desert sunrise.
