Joy Cometh

When I struggled with depression and fatigue and toddlers, I realized that my joy was stolen.  I listened to the music and I sang and I read the books and I quoted Bible passages, but I was still grasping for Joy.

As I searched for Joy, I found myself drawn to the word. The action. The desired result. The freedom that came in its release.

I don't fully have the joy that I started out with. But I am getting there and I feel I am on a good path.  I will claim that fruit of the Spirit once more and be filled and overflowing.
