I know… No time has really passed… so why is Janie writing again?! Well, first… someone who is really awesome told me that I should write more… And I just had a Jesus kind of moment…
I was playing the song on the piano from the last post, “God of This City”. Well, I never knew there was even a second verse until I printed out the chords and words myself the other day. The last line in the second verse says, “You’re the Joy in the sadness”… oh how true that is for me now.
Yesterday I looked up Happiness in Joy in the thing I like to call a concordance in a book (the Bible)… it’s exactly what I needed to do. The awesome person from the first paragraph told me I should try this. And then this morning I did the words Joyful and Rejoice. Then I read a verse that I’ve heard, sang, and said a million times…
“This is the day that they LORD has made;
Let us rejoice and be glad in it.”
Psalm 118:24
This is a day. Even though I thank my Beautiful LORD for yet another day of life and to live for Him, I still have a tendancy to let my worries and stress and emotions get in the way of letting His will be done… not mine.
That’s it.
