Reflection

“Joy doesn’t cancel out the heavy things, but it gives you little pockets of strength to carry on. Let it in whenever and wherever you can.” – Stacie Swift

Prayer

Joyful God,

Thank you for the gift of joy, which shines even in the midst of life’s heaviness. Help us to receive those small pockets of strength, letting them refresh our hearts and renew our spirits. Teach us to welcome joy whenever and wherever it appears, using it to sustain us as we serve, care, and persevere. May your presence turn every moment of delight into courage to carry on with hope and love. Amen.
