Sunny with a chance of joy

Hibiscus flower at Magic Kingdom — Walking to Adventureland yesterday.

Sunny with a chance of joy.

Reflecting back on my first book, i’m reminded that it’s not a book about Christianity even though Jesus is at the center of my life.

You can’t take my joy, devil

Christmas grinch, stealing the Christmas spirit with UPS?

One item (a MacBook) was promised to be delivered in one day. Several others were promised in two days.

Carved out time to go to Apple Store to purchase MackBook. Get home and UPS delivers the original one. Carved out more time to drive it to Fed Ex to send it back – we don’t need two.

Items to arrive two days ago will be arriving (theoretically) today, after we depart for an eight day vacation.

Packages on the front porch for eight days?

Maybe.

So easy to be frustrated. But instead, so joyful. This Christmas is a Christmas of abundance.

An abundance of gratitude, peace, forgiveness, and joy.

We see what we want to see

Disney Customer service Keynote speaker — Accidental screen shot yesterday. Just noticed that it happened exactly as Mickey was blinking.

A busy December schedule can blind us to the incredible joy of the season. The world at the time (2015 years ago), was actually in the moment of a savior being born. Incomprehensible.

Yet, all these years later, Christians have the conscious ability to comprehend it.

But do we?

i find this time of year (December) especially busy. And each year i vow it will be different next year and all the years in the future.

Clutter steals our joy

Pennsylvania Fall foliage — Where are we going today?

Clutter steals our joy.

Clutter invisibly manifests itself into the fabric of our lives because we think being organized is the way to conquer clutter.

The reality is clutter comes from time pressure, obligations, and lack of purpose.

When we are stressed and metaphorically don’t know where we are going, we guess. Guessing is not an effective way to thrive.

Rejoice when your world gets smaller

Digestive disease chart — Two days ago, a reminder that health is wealth – we know this yet we don’t.

Our world gets smaller when God’s world (in our life) gets bigger.

About the only thing powerful enough to get our medicated, distracted, and entertained attention is a bring-you-to-your-knees wake up call.

To remember what it was like to be poorer, less educated, inexperienced, and uncertain is to now be able to appreciate how far God has come in our life.

Let what i need be small and insignificant.

Let what i can offer God be big and wonderfully significant.
