My mom had three sisters, all of her family had girls, she had two more girls to add to the mix. Then along comes me and my hubby and we bring in the first of the boys. <br />"boy" imaginations .. yes. My oldest son is 18 and is at Basic Training with the Army. My other is 16.<br />I enjoyed your post.<br />Carla<br />Carla from The Riverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12107829617899979937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4562093136200114577.post-39456803574959193412019-01-16T13:31:55.970-07:002019-01-16T13:31:55.970-07:00I love your word- JOY---I have decided to seek JOY...I love your word- JOY---I have decided to seek JOY in every avenue this year, too, Debbie.

To put it simply, JOY is so YOU! If I had to name one person who lived joyfully and spread that joy to others, it would be you. I think you have chosen a perfect word. We can learn so much from being joyful. By giving thanks to the Lord we are doing so with a joyful spirit, when we are weak our stength does indeed come from the joy of the Lord, and oh, what joy there is in our salvation.<br /><br />A beautiful post and a wonderful word to live by. Thanks for sharing.

I look forward to seeing what the Lord does this year with this special word that fits you so powerfully! How wonderful to enjoy such a special time with your grandsons, it is true that boys and girls are so different from each other! So much fun to enjoy with the boys, all the snow tunnels, forts, and outdoor fun sounds like the perfect way to have a blessed time with them! I just ADORE your beautiful journal, and what a beautiful thing it is to have right at hand all the scriptures that have ministered to your heart about the character of the Lord! I just love journaling, and I'm going to make some new journals this year, and this will definitely be one of them, just a beautiful idea, and a great way to further store the Word in our hearts! Appreciate your love for the Lord, and the joy that overflows from your heart into blogland... blessings, hugs and much joy to you sweet friend!

She has now shared a devotional with me that she read during the year to remind her to find joy everywhere.<br /><br />I keep a daily prayer journal and often write down scriptures as reminders of how much God loves us and wants to talk with us. Thank you for this lovely post. Wishing you much joy friend.

My word for last year was trust. I knew when God spoke it into my spirit that it was going to be a challenging year because if he knew I needed to know that I could trust Him, I knew there would be some difficult times. When we truly trust, we know His peace and I experienced that to be true. He is faithful. I followed you. Hope you'll follow my new blog. I'm back to White Lace and Promises. We'll catch up soon.

I have been between two words this last week-one is Trust, because in so many areas of uncertainty in my life I simply have to trust Him. The second word is Hope-because that is what I must do!

It isn't always easy to find the joy in the midst of life's sorrows and heartaches, but if we can focus on the fact that HE is our joy, it is amazing how it does strengthen us! I also think of the verse to "count it all joy when we fall into trials", and oh, my, that can be so difficult to do when our bodies are exhausted and spent from the long fight with afflictions, our nerves are frayed from such long pounding of the enemy, and our spirit is absolutely weary from well-doing. It surely takes a concentrated effort to "count it all joy" when we are so depleted in every way. These verses help us focus and keep our eyes on Jesus, don't they? And, in Him we find our peace. May the Lord bless you in this new year, sweet friend, and may your heart always be filled with His joy!Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01891257905649460436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4562093136200114577.post-36872177873907466882019-01-10T08:13:57.206-07:002019-01-10T08:13:57.206-07:00There is not a finer word to describe your counten...There is not a finer word to describe your countenance, my dearest friend!

Unfortunately, so many do and I feel truly sorry for those who don't know how to find the TRUE joy. I am in awe of your notebook and this wonderful way to keep these scripture close at hand and to your heart. Your Christmas sounded so fun and in response to your telling us about having girls vs. boys, well, it was just the opposite for me. We had 2 sons and 3 grandsons before our Olivia came along...I hardly knew what to do with a little girl! But, we figure it out...LOL! I hope your new year is off to a great start, my friend!
