Psalm 37:4 " Delight in the Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart."
Over the weekend I went to a Beth Moore simulcast conference, the focus was Psalms 34:7. I realized during this conference that I need to find the joy in God and carry it in my heart and show through my actions.
I've decided my first step to finding the joy will be putting God's Words of Joy into my mind. I am going to attempt over the next 26 weeks to memorize a scripture each week. I'm going to be using the acrostic technique. Now, I'm horrible at memorizing and in the past I've not been very good at it but I feel with God's guidance and support I can accomplish this goal. I decided to start this blog for two reasons:
1. To track this Joy Journey
2. To have something that will hold me accountable.
The first verse will be Psalm 34:19 - "A righteous man may have many troubles, but the Lord delivers him from them all!"
Tonight in my prayer I will be asking God to assist me in finding the joy and helping me on this Joy Journey and I'll also be asking Him to help me show Joy to others.
God Bless!

Just so you know, you've always done an amazing job showing your joy to me, and it's been a huge encouragement to me over the past few years. And I find it fitting that you're now blogging about joy -- I was about to write my own post about joy. Hopefully I'll get to it soon... Love ya!
