RCPC Prophet Poet

Romans 15:13

May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

Choose to Seek Joy

Where will you find joy today?

What palpable expressions of joy will rise with you as the sun’s golden rays’ peek over the horizon?

Simply press pause, ponder, seek, and watch the many dimensions of joy gracefully unfold …

Pure joy is like the beauty and quietness of each divinely fashioned, falling, wet, and unique snowflake

Visible joy is like a singing lark dancing along the invisible air currents across the glistening sky

Unbridled joy is radiant like the faces of children with their wide-eyed smiling expressions and squeals of delight

Tender joy is like soft, wet kisses from a loved one, the tickle of a butterfly kiss, and the sweet taste of neck sugar

Tangible joy is like a child’s very first bite of a juicy, sweet, summertime peach

Unexpected joy is often found in the ordinary of the day…

See joy in the beautiful, hand-woven tapestries our lives have created, hear joys remarkable wonders calling, feel joy’s tender touch of a hand, and sample joy’s many tactile pleasures that course through every fiber of the body each and every day

Choose to seek joy each and every day
