Joy

Sea BreezesI must share this, although I still find it incredible it happened to plain ole me. I was busy doing housework..you know, toilet cleaning, kitchen cleaning, laundry....and suddenly I was hit, I mean emotionally hit with an overwhelming feeling of joy that started in my core and radiated through my whole body. I began to cry and fell to my knees. I knew immediately it was the Holy Spirit, no doubt. I asked the Lord, "Are you giving me this feeling because I love you so much?" He replied, a" I am giving you this feeling because I love you so much." I feel to my knees there with the ajax in my hand and continued to weep. I felt healing running through my body and a new closeness to God. I called a friend to share the experience with her. She was a patient listener and reminded me I should not analyze but just create a wonderful memory.

I shared with my hubbie when he came home.He listened patiently and tells me that feeling of joy washes over him several times a day. He is the most positive and stress free person I know. Thank you God. Our relationship is growing, which is so special for me.

Sometimes, in hard moments in our life, we have to ask God for His Holy Spirit to wash us with joy and love. He is always by our side. It is we who turn away or think we are alone. Our Lord has promised He is with us always even unto the end of the earth. He is with us at work, play, and rest. Joy is yours as a believer, praise His name with each breath, breathe His Spirit, treat others as they were the Christ.Have a blessed Sunday.
