Joy in the Morning

Statue by Karl Jensen. click here

It’s Monday morning; time to begin a new work week.

Just think—a six whole days waiting to be lived.

Take a deep breath.

Anchor yourself in the now. 

Experience the love, hope, and joy

that are in the present moment,

and decide what you are going to do with today.

 It is yours to spend! Obviously there are many

 “have-to-dos” waiting for you.

But there are also many moments to be lived

 that aren’t scripted for you.

So use those moments to feel the joy,

 fill your faith,

do some good,

and drink in the wisdom of the Spirit.

Like anything else in life, you get what you pay for.

So use your time to buy the best!

Buy joy.
