Three years ago today
there was a light show of
thunder and lightning
that my hubby and I watched from our porch.
To us it was a celebration
because IVY LOU came into this world.
BIRTH is LIFE CHANGING.
BIRTH is a MIRACLE
as it is knitted by GOD~
PURPOSELY BORN
because GOD said so.
Another precious little child
sent to show us grown ups how to live.
To have the FAITH like a child.
To PLAY as if that is the only role on this earth.
To PLAY
is to embrace
THE JOY OF THE LORD
because their is no other
JOY that is everlasting~
"YOU make known to me the path of life;
in YOUR presence there is fullness of joy;
at your right hand are pleasures forevermore" (Psalm 16:11).
For when you experience
HIS JOY
you are empowered
to do the impossible
to face the impossible
to LIVE the impossible
because
HIS JOY does the impossible
for
"Do not sorrow, for the JOY of the LORD is your strength" (Nehemiah 8:10).
The STRENGTH OF JOY~
An inside outside explosion
because of a relationship with
GOD
when you
PUT JESUS IN YOUR STORY
that
creates a forever bond into eternity
that is ours in every moment,
so that being JOYFUL comes so natural
that we start to PLAY like a child
in every moment
no matter what the moment is
because
we have SOMEONE to REJOICE about~
"Rejoice in the LORD always [delight, take pleasure in HIM];
again I will say, rejoice!" (Philippians 4:4 AMP)
So HAPPY BIRTHDAY
IVY LOU
and
Thank You
for living every every moment with such
JOY that is beyond contagious
that makes me reach inside and grasp
THE JOY OF THE LORD
so that I can
LIVE in every moment
with a child's heart
filled with
"JOY" (listen to the song below)
