Praise to Our Heavenly JOY
You will make known to me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of JOY; In Your right hand there are pleasures forever.
I’m dancing! Are you? Twirling in my Father’s arms. Placing my hand in His. Smiling at the future. Why? Because He knows the path before me. He is the path.
So we twirl as the music of heaven accompanies us in this great dance of life.
Sometimes He holds me closely as we slow dance through dark nights and lonely days.
Sometimes we skip through meadow flowers laughing as sun rays dance on dewdrops.
Every day we take a needed time off the dance floor to talk quietly in hushed voices – me to Him and Him to me. No one else can hear our sacred conversation. It’s just between us. And, then, as the day and household awakens, we dance. To the kitchen, to pay the bills, to gas up the car, to work, to the laundry room.
He’s with me. And, the fact is, the more I pay attention to His presence, the more joy filled I am. The more I choose to be consciously aware that He’s holding me, guiding me through my sometimes backward, sometimes circling, sometimes dizzying days, the more I smile…at Him, at life, at others, at myself.
In our Father’s presence is fullness of joy.
Heavenly Joy, we praise You, for tightly holding us…along the Path of Life to heaven.
