Devotion: Choosing Joy
What is joy? Is it fleeting, elusive, always sought after but rarely-if-ever obtained? Does it course through us like a subterranean river, ever-present but tapped only occasionally, when conditions are favorable? Is it always right in front of us, undetected, waiting for us to be awakened to its presence? Is it a small thing, or immense?
These are just a few of the questions Cecilia Amorocho Hickerson has about joy. She looks to theologians, writers and champions of joy for answers and guidance about how we can live more joyously.
This devotion is part of the May/June 2019 issue of Horizons.
