How to find Joy

Does life seem flat? 

 Is there missing joy in your life?

  Do you wish you could have joy again?

Well I know a little secret.

 But before we get to that, did you know that the word rejoice means to find joy again?  It is kind of like going down deep into the soul and stirring up joy again. It isn't lost, it just may have gotten pushed out of the way when life took you on some twists and turns.

The secret  really isn't a secret; 

it is in your Bible...

 Now that was from the Life Application Bible

but your version might sound like this:

So quiet yourself for a moment,

(do it now or more life may spring up

 and keep you from that joy that is longing to come to you!)

and then 

GIVE a SHOUT,

"God is great!"

And if it doesn't come with the first shout, give it a go again.

Let JOY arise!
