Today was my monthly day with the Lord. It proved to me once again, that God does indeed speak personally to us.
Discouragement has been lurking recently, in the form of some peoples’ responses. I somehow knew that spending a day with Jesus would make it better. He didn’t disappoint. There was a common thread in all of my readings today. It was joy. Not just any joy, but the kind that’s indestructible. It’s independent of the world’s response to you. The ecstasy of intimacy that no one can take away from you.
I am thrilled that Jesus would care so much to take care of me this way. Just what I asked for: strength for life. 
“If I find in myself a desire which no experience in this world can satisfy, the most probably explanation is that I was made for another world.” – C.S. Lewis
