FINDING JOY

Life as we know is filled with many uncertainties,this year Nations of the world have been hit with one crisis after the other and Nigeria has not been left out from flood disasters,bombings,building collapse,the list has been endless,just when you think it is all over.What about individual crisis i heard of a banker who committed suicide because her bethroted jilted her.Very sad you may say.
The crisis that goes on within our hearts is the greatest crisis of all and that's what eventually gives birth to the crisis without,for most people JOY seems like a fading ANTHEM,only heard from afar.When friends and loved ones walk away leaving you stranded in the middle of the highway,when a loved one kisses this world Goodbye,when you get that sack letter unexpectedly or you roam the streets for months unend looking for a job and the list is endless,some will say how do you expect me to smile in the midst of all these......................
The deepest fires can still bring out Gold,we can find joy in the midst of our crisis,when we fix our eyes on the one who is the same yesterday,today, and forever.In the midst of that turbulent situation remember the miracles you took for granted,and know that tommorow is just a promise away......
Remember that people are very unpredictable, so when they hurt us or decide to walk away we should invariably make up our minds to keep moving on,our minds should be set on the one who will keep singing with us through the darkest night..
God is not a thought away he is indeed with us,and the Joy of the Lord can be your strength....when the unexpected greets you,it just came to pass..
