The picture above so perfectly fits and describes my story—uphill, downhill, round and round, exciting, and scary, bright spots and dark spots. My “joyful journey” has sometimes been an amazing thrill ride and sometimes just a big downward spiral! But, the emotional, mental, and physical struggles are all part of the story, and through it all, I see clear reflections of God’s amazing grace.

Finding Joy in the Journey

Joy in the Journey
 
Catch a sunbeam
Spot a rainbow
Follow a dream
Search high and low.
 
Sing a new song
Make a new friend
Right an old wrong
Let sorrow end.
 
Wear a nice smile
Give away cheer
Chat for awhile
Bring others near.
 
Share from your cup
Give others hope
Never give up
Learn how to cope.
 
Hold on to love
Let go of pride
Seek God above
In Him abide.
