The fruit of the Spirit is joy.

Galatians 5:22

JOY!  I woke this morning, the first day of April and read these words that shook me bit.  I tend to look at problems that are growing at this age and forget the Jesus’ response – joy!

Is that what Anna Ruth and I felt as we had our prayer time this morning?  Praise God we did as we considered not our needs but our blessings.

This joy is not conjured up but is a fruit of the Spirit that is God’s handiwork, his alone!  So we begin the month with heart-felt expressions of that amazing gift of the Spirit, JOY.
