Be Joyful

Joyful,
Be joyful,
Be glad this day!
Joy in God’s goodness,
Be glad this day!
All God’s creation joys in His name:
Now let His children all do the same.
Song of the sparrow,
Kiss of the breeze;
Smile of the sunlight,
O joy in these!
Trees pointing upward,
Brooks singing free;
Blossom and starlight,
All joy in Thee.
All God’s creation joys in His Name:
Now let His children all do the same.
Man in God’s likeness,
free from disease;
Perfect creation,
O joy in these!
Men of all nations,
Upright and free;
Thy sons and daughters,
All praising Thee!
Joyful,
Be joyful,
Be glad this day!
Joy in God’s goodness,
Be glad this day!
"A friend came up to me at work at nine in the morning and said
“My day is already full of obstacles that I don’t seem to be able to get round! I don’t know what to do!”
And I found myself looking at the river [which was so near and I could see it beyond her] and began saying
“Well perhaps see them as obstacles in the river which it just flows round, you can be the same.”
“Got it!” She said! “I’m the flow of the river and nothing can affect me!”
And from then on things started moving for her…someone she hadn’t been able to contact suddenly appeared and things got better!
From then on everyone was talking about becoming part of the force for good; not in so many words but that was what was implied!”

So much of the time we miss the natural order of things by pushing willfully to make our own plans work!
Read MoreMy website is about healing thought and body so that we can find Heaven. What stops us right now, from feeling we are experiencing heaven and getting everything right for ourselves? There might be many wrong 'things'. But, if for a moment, we just take the “thought” of those things, we can see how dominating and mesmerising the wrongs are! Then we are well on the way to finding a new perspective …. and with determination can faze them out of being the filter through which we see everything, as this can mesmerize us.
