Joy

We have been pleased to see folks joining in our challenges, including the wonderful creations for 'God's Promises'.

It's Hazel here; it's my turn to set the challenge this time and I've chosen

'Joy'

When things are going well in life we feel happy and joyful, but sometimes circumstances of life may cause us to feel sad, but even at those times we can still experience the joy of the Lord. I'm reminded of the verse in Nehemiah 8:10b: 'for the joy of the Lord is my strength'.

We'd love to see your take on this challenge
so please leave us a comment when you are finished your piece,
so that we and others may see your work.
To get you inspired the Design Team have come up with some beautiful pieces.

What a fun challenge! As I was working on the page, I realized that abiding with Christ is what creates joy. Here is my version:
