weekly fight for joy

Every Sunday i’m going to (try) share with you the joy from the week that has helped me fight.

fight the good fight: “Pursue a righteous life—a life of wonder, faith, love, steadiness, courtesy. Run hard and fast in the faith. Seize the eternal life, the life you were called to, the life you so fervently embraced in the presence of so many witnesses.” – 1 Timothy 6:12 MSG

I’m pressing into these next few days before Ash Wednesday, thinking about Jesus and the expression of His Love through my life.  These people helped me fight for the joy this week:

“That’s the point: What God’s graciously given you is always enough to be abundant grace for someone else.” from Ann
