My Devotional Journal: Today's Our Daily Bread author, Xochitl Dixon … AT THIS LINK … tells of a dear friend, whom she called “Glenda,” who was gifted by God to lift up and share her joy with everyone she came into contact, … sharing the love of God with others thru her own joy.
Mama Glenda is a great model for us all, isn’t she? And if my readers have taken in the joyous linked song and meditated on the Scriptures above, I pray we are all convicted to go out today and share God’s enabling/empowering love/grace with others thru the joy we have in a saving relationship with God Himself. And there’s plenty to share, isn’t there?

My Prayer Today: Oh Abba Father, ... King Jesus, ... . I pray that all reading here will join me, … to go out today to share the joy we have in knowing You, Lord, with others. … Amen
