Feeling a case of the "grumpies" today. Just feel irritated and frustrated. No particular reason except maybe I could blame hormones, 4 boys and a dog. But from this moment on today, I am CHOOSING joy.
I am CHOOSING to (1 Peter 3:8-12, The Message Bible)
"Be agreeable.
Be sympathetic.
Be loving.
Be compassionate.
Be humble.
No exceptions. No retaliation. No sharp-tongued sarcasm. Instead, bless-that's "my" job, to bless. I'll be a blessing and also get a blessing. Whoever wants to embrace life and see the day fill up with good, heres what you do: say nothing evil or hurtful; snub evil and cultivate good; run after peace for all your worth. God looks on with His approval. Listening, and responding well to what He asks"
Today I am choosing joy.
