When Joy is Hard to Find

New Normals ~ Adapting

On the days when life hits hard and we struggle...

In the times when, our circumstances are so overwhelming it  diverts our focus to every detail of the issue. 

It can seem as if joy is avoiding us and it takes everything we have to even whisper His name.

That's all we need. To whisper, "Jesus" until we are so overwhelmed by the grace of knowing He is with us and loves us. Even when we feel ugly-messy and crazy-chaos. He loves us. 

May we stay there and bathe in the sweetness of His love until grace showers us to an eased mind and soothed soul. There is no rush there. We have permission to stay, breathe, and be refreshed while joy finds us.

Isaiah 35:3-4 ~ Tell fearful souls, "Courage! Take heart!
God is here, right here,
on His way to put things right
And redress all wrongs.
He's on His way! He'll save you!"
