I've had highs. I've had lows. How about you? Do you like that?? Me neither! Mustering up joy doesn't last does it? The Holy Spirit using Scripture brings joy despite hard times. What we think - that's what we act like. This plan will help us focus on what right thinking is! 

Have you ever kept a gratitude journal or written down what makes you joyful? Is it ever difficult for you to walk in the light of joy? These guided meditations are reflections on joy, and they will help you learn how joy abides within every moment of your life.  And, they will help you rest and be still in the pleasure of God and then share His joy with others.
