Fruit of Joy

August 12, 2026 By Verna Bowman 3 Comments

There are days when we can feel like our joy has been kicked right out from under us.  It’s completely normal even for a person of strong faith to experience seasons when joy feels depleted and shallow.  Absent, even.

But Sunday

Spring ~ the season that marks sacred days.  A reminder that the winter of our hearts won’t last forever.  There is always a promise of new beginning because of Jesus. Hosanna!
