Be Responsible for Your Own Joy

6/21/2016

No other person is responsible for your joy; you are responsible for that part of your relationship with God. The sooner you own it and quit expecting others to bring you joy, the better off you'll be.

Excerpt from When You're Not Good at Sharing the Gospel by Lori McDaniel.

If the majority of people in your circle are believers, then you need a bigger circle. Don't succumb to a victim mentality of, "I would if my circumstances were different." Leverage your season of life to intersect with other lives-at the park, lunch break, coffee shop, gym or moms from your child's school.

No one else will walk the path God designed for you. Steward your unique circle influence with intentional gospel purpose.

Taken from a devotion from www.crosswalk.com by Lysa TerKeurst, Author ofThe Bathtub is Overflowing but I Feel Drained.

Communicating ahead of time helps us avoid the pitfalls of anger, frustration, and last-minute debates.

For example, have a scheduling session with your husband once a quarter to plan out your master family calendar. Then, once each week, sit down together and go over who is responsible for each of the balls being juggled that week.

Getting the schedule out of your brain and onto a calendar drastically reduces stress and alleviates the feeling that the schedule is running you rather than the other way around.
