Joy:
"I am joyous, radiant, and fulfilled." (DW, 6.4.09)
"This day is holy to our Lord; and do not be grieved, for the joy of the Lord is your strength." (Nehemiah 8.10)
Mei Meditatio:
I can find joy in a myriad of occasions. I find joy in active endeavors such as studying, playing music, visiting with friends, dining, and exercising, yet also in the contemplative stillness of meditative prayer. It's this centering in God that is the peaceful, loving source that conditions and supports me in discovering joy in the many activities of my daily life.
Every day is a blessed gift from God. Recognizing beauty and goodness inherent in each precious day of living, I turn over my burden of grief to the infinite Love of Christ and rejoice in the present moment, the eternal now. Christ is the spiritual fortitude that guides me through anxiety and fear into lasting contentment and well-being.
In the name and through the power of Jesus Christ, Son of God, Savior. Amen.
