THE JOYS OF A There are many kind of joy.We can experience joy upon seing a beautiful sunset of from a job well done.But,the kind of joy which are more likely to experience is simply the pleasure of enjoying themselves in the moment. A flyng a kite or playing with a friendly is likely to be so wrapped up in this their play as to be oblivious to what else is going on around them . When we experience this kind of joy we laugh spontaneously and are rejoicing naturally.There are certain activities that tend to produce these joyous raptures of self-transcendece, where we literally forget our problems and our ver y selves.Included among these are music and dancing,walking or hiking in places of natural beauty, or simply engaging in the kind of activities that gave us joy as a , wheter flying a kite,climbing a tree or skipping stones down at the pond.We should not be so grown-up that we forget how to experience the joys of a .God want us to be happy, and climbing one of His trees or sending a kite into the sky is really a simple prayer of rejoicing. Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice; let the sea roar,and all that fills it; let the field exult, and everything in! Then shall all the trees of the wood sing for joy before the Lord. R.S.V.Psalm 96:11-13 |
