Joy

Do you ever have one of those moments where you are overcome with how many blessings you have in your life?

I hope you do because those moments remind of everything that is good in the world. I am thankful for the joy I have in my life, and I pray that I never forget the source of that joy...because if I have learned anything in my life so far it is that there is a huge difference between happiness and joy. Joy is more of a daily constant, the reminder that I am a child of God. Happiness comes with little things, and is more fleeting...but to have the best realm of happiness I believe you need to be swallowed up by a river of joy first.
