The Full Measure of Joy | Dreaming Beneath the Spires

“I want to say these things that they may have the full measure of my joy in them.” John 17:13.

Joy. Experiencing it: That is the way to live. Sometimes, all we need to do to experience joy is to slow down, remember the Father, ask for a filling of the Spirit, and pray.

I am prone to occasional low moods, which I need to manage. Over the last year or two, making the most of having very flexible work and work conditions (I’m self-employed), I actually take to bed when my mood is low, and pray, and praise God, and remember him. And then briefly nap. Almost always that’s all it takes for me to feel energetic and full of beans again.
