Daily Blessings

Expanding Power of Joy

I LET JOY FILL MY MIND AND HEART. I LET THE EXPANDING POWER OF JOY EXPRESS THROUGH ME.

When we are joyful we feel good—we feel healthy and strong. Joy sings of enthusiasm and energy. This positive quality of mind lightens our work, brightens our home, and makes everything we do interesting.

There is no need to go through life feeling dull or discouraged when we can accomplish our goals through the power of a joyful spirit. Joy is a building tool that helps us create, a multiplying activity that produces right results. Joy is like a giant magnet, for when we express joy we attract exciting and rewarding relationships and experiences.

Solve your problems and make your life brighter by consciously putting joy into your mind and heart. Joy in your thinking will bring forth new ideas and new ways of doing things. Joy in your heart

I have spoken these things to you, that my joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be made full. (John 15:11)

Transcript of a radio broadcast by Rev. Joyce Kramer, January 21, 2014.

What do you want out of life? Do you know? Few people have any real concrete picture of just what they want out of life. Consequently it seems that they live at the mercy of someone or something other than themselves. Thus we have the belief that we are the victim of things over which we have little or no control.

Each and every person is created with the ability and the power to determine his own future. Man is not at the whim of fate, luck, or chance. Neither is he created to be at the mercy of another person [ . . .]

The Joyce Kramer Ministries logo depicts a dogwood tree planted across the entrance to the church that Rev. Kramer founded in Virginia Beach. Transplanted from her brother’s property in Charlottesville, for eighteen months the tree seemed nothing more than a lifeless stick in the ground. Finally, on a Wednesday afternoon, the decision was made to dig it up, but the lawn maintenance man did not have a shovel with him. The next week, he said, he would come back and discard the dead tree. But that Sunday when Rev. Kramer arrived at church, she noticed a single leaf had appeared on the otherwise barren stick. They left the tree in place, and it grew into one of the most beautiful on the property. This flowering dogwood represents the message of Joyce Kramer Ministries: Growth is always possible; never give up.
