Elf-help for Living With Joy

Everyone wants to be happy. But there are times in your life when happiness seems beyond your reach. There is, however, a good feeling that can remain part of you even in the worst of times. It is true, profound joy. Joy is the conviction at the center of your soul that embraces life with acceptance, gratitude, serenity, and delight. It is being in the now, open to the unlimited, grace-filled possibilities of each moment. Amid worries, struggles, frustrations, and uncertainty, it is the calm awareness deep within your being that knows you are a beloved child of God.
