How is it that we get bogged down by the insignifÂiÂcant daily events of life enough for it to steal joy from us? I supÂpose they daily events don’t seem insignifÂiÂcant at the time. FloodÂing bathÂrooms (I should tell you that story someÂtime…), layÂoffs, canÂcer, disÂobeÂdiÂent chilÂdren seem pretty insurÂmountÂable when you’re livÂing in that moment. But, when we look at the big picÂture, perÂhaps we can step back and look at Christ, at His amazÂing gift to us in His perÂfect sacÂriÂfice on the cross to pay the penalty for our sins…then just maybe we can look past our fears and pains and headaches and see joy. thevirtuouswife/count-it-all-joy/
