Tired? You Can Still be JOYful!

Have you had your JOY JUICE today?  Even if you’re tired, you need to drink it consistently!

            Those of you who are in the child-rearing stage truly are in one of the busiest times of life.  I remember all those constant chores that are not optional when you have little ones around.  It seems laundry is a never ending cycle and meal preparation is continuous.  There are appointments to keep, groceries to buy and more activities than you can fit into the day! You never feel as if your house is clean or that you are caught up on your chores.  At night you fall into bed exhausted, to get up early the next morning and do it all over again.

            See…I haven’t forgotten!    But I will tell you from experience… that stage of life goes by so quickly and before you know it, your little ones will be all grown up.  So, again, this grandma (GiGi) would like to remind you to find the JOY in each day. 

            All of us, regardless of stage of life, find ourselves tired and overwhelmed. It’s at those time we that we can “rest” in the assurance that we are not alone.  We can call out to our Father for His strength, His wisdom and perseverance to make it through our busy days. Joshua 1: 9 says: "Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”

 

            So tired mama; overworked dad; busy person who dreads all the responsibilities of today----------Drink in a hefty portion of JOY JUICE and know that God will give you the power to make it through whatever today holds. 

            Pick up your glass, heavy as it may seem, and gulp down your special serving of JOY JUICE.
