Give me joy, O lord, because I lift my heart to You.
Psalm 86:4
There are so many ways we can lift our souls to Him, and the main one is prayer. Something as simple as stopping what we’re doing for a moment, taking a breath, and saying “Thank You, Lord,” can open us up to His gifts of joy and peace, even in the most everyday, frustrating, or even painful times. Receiving His grace is the easy part, He gives it freely. Remembering to ask in the middle of all the distractions, that’s the hard part.
