Yesterday I put in 12 hours at work. It was one of those "Monday on a Tuesday" days. I was consistently busy.
I also received a wonderful compliment from a visitor to our office. After helping her with a number of technology-related issues, she said I was very "joyful". She went on to say that she had noticed me throughout the day that I was always joyful.
Whether I am home, work, or whatever I may be doing, I try to have a positive attitude. I try to see the sun above the clouds. It's not easy especially when you are surrounded by negativity. Fight off the fog of doubt and despair and be joyful.
Lastly...
"Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. Share with God's people who are in need." (Romans 12:12-13)
