When I am in a good mood, I feel energetic, ready to meet my day's goals. When my mood goes south, I want to go to bed and those around me want to go to bed too. Let's face it. We don't feel happy every minute of the day. Sometimes we have bad hair days. And what woman doesn't get in a bad mood when she's having a bad hair day?
But we can choose to make the best of our days. As believers, regardless of how we feel, we can have inner joy that holds us steady when life throws choas our way. It's joy that says, "Regardless of the circumstances, I choose to trust God to get me through this." Does that means I am happy about my circumstance? No, but I know God can use my circumstance for good. Is my heart full of cheer? You bet it is! I love my life with my family and friends, but the thing about it is, it only gets better from here. One day I will be with my Lord for all eternity and all life's choas will disappear. The knowledge of where I am and where I am going gives my heart a continual peace.
God amazes me beyond words. I thank Him every day for a deep, abiding joy that strengthens and reminds me that through the struggles of life, raging hormones, and the fragile emotions. He is all I need!
