Seeking Joy?

I'm still around~ just completed a super-busy and blessed, but amazingly refreshing summer. We began our "official" school year yesterday.... I've nine in school this year, so I find myself with more reasons than ever before to "lean on the Everlasting Arms" and find Him faithful once again and in new ways.

If you have a few minutes, I highly recommend Monica's post "When I pursued Joy." I have been contemplating this very issue of late....

...finding myself pulled up short and wondering if the Lord is truly "enough for me." How ashamed I am of the many times I seek joy, comfort and heart-satisfaction in places other than the Lord.

Some pictures from our summer wanderings posted here soon, Lord willing!

Bless you, friends as you seek Him!

  1. I'm so glad you had a relaxing, fun summer! I did miss you, though! Can't wait to see the pictures...we started school last week with seven. This year I have cut back on a lot, and we are all enjoying it so far. Hope you have a good week resting and trusting in Him. I will have to go read the article!
    Thanks!
