My cup is filled with Door County Caramel Pecan Scones Coffee this morning. And after listening to a night filled with storms it is time to write.
Isaiah 55:12
“For you shall go out in joy and be led forth in peace; the mountains and the hills before you shall break forth into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.
This coming weekend, members of our church will be going t out on a prayer walk and at the same time others will be in the church praying. Some will be giving out bottles of water on the bike trail near church. All have been asked to bring something with them. They are to bring a smile. Wherever they will be, these folks will be around others. At 9:00 AM most everyone participating will be wide awake. If they bring joy with their smiles and a nice word to others it will make the day for someone a little better. But my thought for this morning is this. When you spread joy and good tidings you can't help but bring joy to yourself. Being in prayer for others is a gift given to God's children that they might pray for for each other and those that they meet. Being at the throne of God in prayer is a joy to do. What we perceive as a loving duty will bring joy to our own hearts.
So experience some joy today. Smile and say a kind word to those you meet. Pray for them and you will have filled your part of the world with some joy.
God bless,
Marty
