Choose Joy ~

By Deborah Ann

choosejoy CHRISTian poetry deborah ann

Today I’m choosing joy,
I will  not be unhappy
today I’m making sure
nothing will make me grumpy.

I will not be overwhelmed,
instead I’ll be elated
no matter my circumstance
my spirit won’t get deflated.

Today I am choosing joy,
I’ll do more than just try
today I will make sure
happy tears are all I cry.

I’ll not feel sorry for myself,
or let my heart be troubled
I’ll let the gladness that I feel
burst through my worry bubble.

Today I am choosing joy,
I have the perfect remedy
today I’m going to Jesus . . .
for my happiness therapy!

John 17:13
King James Version

“And now come I to thee;
and these things I speak
in the world,
that they might have
my joy fulfilled in themselves.”

Jesus our peace ------- Jesús nuestra paz

"But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ. For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us;" Ephesians 2:13-14 -------- Pero ahora en el Cristo Jesús, vosotros que en otro tiempo estabais lejos, habéis sido hechos cercanos por la sangre del Cristo. Porque él es nuestra paz, que de ambos hizo uno, deshaciendo la pared intermedia de separación; Efesios 2:13-14
