joy


'For the joy of the Lord is your strength.' Neh 8:10
You know what its like when you round a corner, or come over the crest of a hill and there before you is the most stunning, breathtaking sunset, or when the kookaburra laughs and the morning silence is broken , or even when you unexpectedly come across a family of 'roo's' on the walking track, grazing and just 'being family.' All the elements of pleasurable surprise.
I was 'touched' by a sentence, a one liner at the recent convention which said: 'Joy comes through surprise.'
We have a God of surprises, who fills our hearts and lives with joy.
Grace and peace from the Lord Jesus Christ.
Anne, servant of the Lord.
