Life's Little Joys.

"If you obey my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have obeyed my Father's commands and remain in his love. I have told you this so that my JOY may be in you and that your JOY may be complete." -John 15:10-11

Life’s Little Joys

It is easy to take for granted

The things you know and love

But I’ve learned to appreciate  
Joys given me from above

Being so far away

Has its ups and its downs

But I know I’m here for a reason

To better those whom I surround

God has a plan

Far greater than my own

Faith is my foundation

I know that I am not alone

Teaching young children

Those who love you through and through

Reminds me of what is important

Reminds me of what is true

I am here to make a difference

And experience a new way of being

To become a stronger Christian

And spend time just seeing

The beautiful world that God made

Hand crafted, brilliant, and bright

The mountains, city, and people

God breathed, perfect, and right

This is the best thing that I have done

And the hardest thing too

Yet easiest with God by my side

Reminding me of what to do

I am so happy here

So very content

I’m hungering to know God more

Every chance that I get

As I sit and enjoy the scenery

And the giggles from my kids

I can’t help but smile and say

“Man, this is where it is”

Life’s little joys

They surround us every day

Just look around and see

God is with us, always
