There are so many ways we can pursue joy in our lives, but it has to come from the heart. Being momentarily happy and possessing an internal authentic joy in the face of difficult circumstances are two very different things. I believe it is the little moments of happiness that help shape and prepare us for the difficult life circumstances we all face. My question is what do you do in your everyday that brings you happiness and fosters a deep found joy in your life?
I rely heavily on my faith, family, and work. My life passion is to share my faith through action and writing. Whether it is a passion to cook, a drive to dig in understand and share your faith, a project in your community, or a craft to add beauty to your home… wherever you find joy share it with us below.
I loved this piece the today show ran on faith and happiness:
