Thankful Thursday ~ Joy

“And now my head shall be lifted up above my enemies all around me, and I will offer in his tent sacrifices with shouts of joy; I will sing and make melody to the Lord.” ~ Psalm 27:6 (ESV ~ emphasis mine)

Ever feel like skipping, jumping, smiling, dancing – all at the same time? Oh, what a sweet ‘feeling’ joy is. I wanted to share first the definition of the word ‘joy’ from Webster with you, but I don’t agree with their definition.

You see, I think (my personal opinion), joy comes from the inside and not from outside circumstances…So, this week I would like to share with you my joy…

  • Thank You, Lord for the joy You have put in my heart. Knowing that You have sent your son to redeem me, to spent eternity with You, makes my heart beat faster — skip for joy…
  • I am thankful for my beloved and the joy in our marriage. Especially after I read this interview he gave here. You have to understand, my beloved is a manly man – not a lot of ‘mooch’ – know what I mean. I know he loves me (he tells me every day), but to see how he talks about me outside our own walls, gives me joy…
  • I am thankful that the Lord allowed me to raise a son. He is doing well for himself. He truly is our pride and joy…
  • I am thankful for Christian women on the internet. I love reading how they find joy in following the Lord…
  • I am thankful for the joy in children. I watched a little girl the other day as she was dancing on the sidewalk. The joy on her face was hard to miss…
  • I am thankful for cameras. It gives me joy to ‘record’ the glorious splendor around me…
  • Last but not least, I am thankful for Fall. My favorite season. With joy, I am looking forward celebrating the birth of our Savior…

What are you thankful for this week? Please do share with us all by leaving your link below.

Thank you for stopping by today. Remember: joy comes from the heart — let you heart ‘spill’ out this week…
