There are many times in our life when we find our lives seemingly out-of-control and the things we want to accomplish seem to be the furthest from our control. In the midst of your struggles and in the moments you feel your voice cannot be heard and your actions cannot possibly make a difference in this world, please remember that you are not alone. Together we can make a difference. Together we can choose joy.

Joy is a choice. 

Joy is not always easy, but it will always help your situation. I am reminded of the joy that children around the world display despite their lack of basic necessities; joy that can be found in the most remote villages where even clean drinking water is hard to find.

In the busyness of our lives we can easily lose site of the things that are most important, our family, our relationships with friends and our relationship with our loving Father. Please take time to look at your life and remove the distractions that hinder your joy.
