I Want to Be HappySample

š Day 1 ā Joy Is Possible
Biblical joy isnāt about luckāitās about where and with whom you choose to live your life. The psalmist describes a tree that bears fruit and doesnāt witherābecause it's planted by the river. Itās not about how strong the tree is, but where itās rooted.
Joy doesnāt come from performance, but from proximity. Thatās why ordinary people can walk in peace while others, with everything going for them, still feel anxious.
This text doesnāt promise eternal summer, but deep roots that hold even in lifeās harshest winters.
Storms will come, but the tree stands firm. The secret isnāt in the seasonsāitās in the roots. And Godās Word is fertile ground.
šāāļø Reflection Questions
- Where have I been planting my life lately?
- What do I hunger for moreāpleasure or Godās presence?
š Prayer
āLord, help me stop seeking joy in things that dry up with time. Plant my soul near You, where there is life, fruit, and peaceāeven in the difficult seasons.ā
Scripture
