Proverbs 17:22 “A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones.” What a fitting verse as I am nursing a broken bone. I was feeling a bit of despair this morning, a bit of broken heartedness. I cannot travel to see my grandson on his birthday today or be with my friends and family, who are remembering my daughter-in-law on her memorial bicycle ride this weekend. I can’t travel because it’s too painful to leave my leg down for too long. Then I read proverbs 17:22 “A cheerful heart is good medicine. “ There are many things we can all focus on that will make us down hearted. Today, I choose a cheerful heart. I choose to be thankful I have a grandson. I choose to be thankful that my beautiful daughter-in-law was in my life in the first place. I choose to be thankful this moment, even if I feel teary!! I do this, so I can have a cheerful heart. Today, I choose the joy of the Lord. May you choose a cheerful heart today too!!!
