Walking is the perfect way of moving if you want to see into the life of things. It is the one way of freedom. If you go to a place on anything but your own feet you are taken there too fast, and miss a thousand delicate joys that were waiting for you by the wayside. Elizabeth von Arnim

Joy

 Happy Sunday

A sunrise from this past week.


📖    📖

Philippians 4:4

Rejoice in the Lord always: and again I say, Rejoice.

Psalm 100:2

Serve the Lord with gladness: 
come before his presence with singing.

🎶    🎶

🎶 Joy In Serving Jesus 🎶

 There is joy in serving Jesus,
As I journey on my way,
Joy that fills the heart with praises,
Ev'ry hour and ev'ry day.

 There is joy in serving Jesus,
Joy that triumphs over pain,
Fills my soul with heaven's music,
Till I join the glad refrain. 

 There is joy in serving Jesus,
As I walk alone with God.
'Tis the joy of Christ, my Savior,
Who the path of suffering trod. [Refrain]

 There is joy in serving Jesus,
Joy amid the darkest night.
For I've learned the wondrous secret,
And I'm walking in the light. 

Refrain:

There is joy, joy,
Joy in serving Jesus,
Joy that throbs within my heart;
Ev'ry moment, ev'ry hour,
As I draw upon His power,
There is joy, joy,
Joy that never shall depart.

- Oswald J Smith

A Blessed Sunday to all. 🙂

What a witness to the world Christians would be
if only they were more evidently very happy people.

Victor - More snow.  A few more inches over night and still snowing during the day so had a snowy walk again. 

Inger - There is never a lot of traffic where I live! 😃

MsBB - You are right, we had a pellet stove at the old house.

Wonderful words of wisdom. I long to find more ways to serve the Lord in my everyday walk. Sometimes the simplest thing can bless someone else's life . . . a helping hand, giving of friendship or of material things . . . even a smile or a hug can lighten another peoples heavy load. Even taking a little time out of our day to visit someone that we know is lovely or to bring them a gift of homemade food. We just need to be aware of the needs around us. Life gets so busy and we all forget at times to look around us. There is always someone in a worst circumstance than ourselves.
Bless you and have a lovely day.

If we smile and say joyful things—what a difference can make in a sour world.

Joy in servicing Jesus. We used to sing that in church, back when I was much younger. It has a great message.
