"A Flower blooms for its own joy."

Oscar Wilde

 I picked my 'Word of the Year'! This word has been popping up in my life recently. Not so much because I am joyful but rather, that I want to remember to be joyful! There is so much chaos in our world and I want to make a conscious effort to remember that how messy our world is, that there is joy also! 

Heavenly Father, give me a joyful disposition. Allow me to catch glimpses of how beautiful life really is! Joy does not depend on my circumstances but rather on my intimate relationship with You!
