“The Lord has done it this very day; let us rejoice today and be glad.” Psalms‬ ‭118‬:‭24‬ ‭NIV‬‬

This week we have been meditating on the fruits of the spirit. Today we will focus on Joy. One of my favorite verses is from Psalm 118:24, our key verse for today. If I meditate on it when I wake up, during trials, or celebrations, it always brings me joy. It has been very helpful for me to share my HPV journey. It has brought me joy to know that God will use my story for someone else. It proves, that this verse from Proverbs 17:22 NIV is so true; “A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones.”

Last week I had my postoperative appointment from my hysterectomy. I was a little anxious as I waited once again for the results. I received the wonderful news that my biopsies showed NO CANCER. The picture above is before and after my appointment. This sign was at check out. You all didn’t know that by me sharing, I was leaning on my family, friends, and readers to help carry me through. I can say that with God’s help and your support, my faith was bigger than my fear.

We have lots to be thankful for! Whatever your joy is today, join me in shouting it out; “Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth. Psalms‬ ‭100‬:‭1‬ ‭NIV‬‬. I encourage you to worship with, This Is The Day by Cityalight.
