JOY RESTORED

Psalm 51:12 Restore to me the joy of Your salvation, and uphold me by Your generous spirit.

Along our life journeys we encounter many bumps in the road. Some of those bumps cause us to lose our joy. One of the main reasons why we lose our joy is because we have taken our focus off of the CREATOR. Sometimes our joy can be lost due to others who have caused us pain and hurt along the way. I would like to share with you about a season in my daughter's life where she was emotionally hurt from others who called themselves her friends. Because of that season she closed herself off from allowing anyone to be close to her heart.

Then came a new season where she allowed herself to open her heart more to the CREATOR, and HE taught her a lot about herself; which in fact caused her to teach her momma a few things about life. Her seasons of healing came and then it came time for her season of being restored. Today I am daily watching the CREATOR bring such joy and laughter back to her beautiful heart and she is now blessed with such amazing, sincere, caring, and loving friends.

So my encouragement for you today is: no matter how many bumps in the road you hit throughout your journey; and when those bumps come to take your joy; look daily to the CREATOR to heal your heart, and allow HIM to restore you completely so that your joyful heart may be full again.

Have a blessed day!

The CREATOR LOVES YOU!❤️
