ADVENT.
JOY. Week 3.
It’s busy out there hey! 🌲
This season can land very differently for each of us.
I read this in my devotional this week…
Joy is like a tree.
It isn’t always in visible bloom, but even in winter, it’s still growing … and it will bloom again.
And knowing it will bloom gives us hope.
And when there is hope … even in tender or painful seasons … there can be a quiet undercurrent of joy.
I’ve been reflecting on where my joy comes from, and what I choose to anchor it to.
At church today… this was the message:
Advent isn’t dependent on our mood.
Advent does not ask us to pretend everything is okay.
It gently invites us to notice the gifts of joy that is already here, right in front of us. 🤍
