Joy. Abundant joy.

"A joyful heart is good medicine," -Proverbs 17:22

"You have put more joy in my heart than they have when their grain and wine abound."
-Psalm 4:7

"For our heart is glad in Him, because we trust His holy name."-Psalm 33:21

Every morning this week I have just woke up with a smile on my face. Not necessarily smiling because of being awake (definitely not that), but more because I knew my day would be wonderful. The Lord has blessed me with so much joy this week in the wake of my hopeless feelings last week. 

He has given me...

• Joy through spending time with old friends, making new ones and just hanging out studying/eating/talking
• Joy through finding a balance with home vs. school so far
• Joy through having fellow Christians by my side in classes where evolution is thrown upon us
• Joy through not having too much homework, but still understanding that homework
• Joy through having a parking spot (even if it is a hike) in a safe neighborhood
• Joy through interacting with other Christians through Cru and my church's college group
• Joy through having the Holy Spirit with me every moment of every day
