Joy radiates within me.
The
spiritual gift of joy is like a candle burning eternally within my
heart. Just as each sunrise illuminates the earth with warm hues, joy
lights me up from the inside out. Sights and sounds spark my
awareness of joy. Hearing the beat of a favorite song, seeing the beauty
of fall foliage, feeling the touch of a loved one’s embrace—all of
these things ignite a spark within me. Whenever I feel darkness in
my life, I meditate on the joy in my life. As I reflect, the joy within
my heart grows. I feel its heat, like the sun, warming my entire body.
It sends tingles to my arms and legs. I cannot help but smile as joy
radiates within me. God is present and I am grateful.
I have said these things to you so that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be complete.—John 15:11
