This Joy

/ LaShona Sellers / 4 Comments

🎶This joy I have…the world didn’t give it and the world can’t take it way…🎶

This joy is not contingent on ideal circumstances or life without trial. This joy is rooted in a heart surrendered and trusting the God who sees, knows and loves me. I’m not taking for granted His daily mercies, second chances and plentiful patience (because Lord knows, sometimes I’m a little slow on the uptake).

Today I’m welcoming my 48th year with gratitude and anticipation. And thank you, friends and readers, for continuing this journey with me.

Daily Thanks #9

Grateful for…

“A praying mom’s love and covering”

Awakened
Ears attuned
To the soothing cadence
Of a language
Only heaven understands
Praises and petitions
Worship and warring
Utterances from a heart
Surrendered and seeking
Sacred moments of His glory
Resting and refreshing
Wrapped in the peace of His presence
When Mom prays

The Best Birthday

/ LaShona Sellers / Leave a comment

My husband is my best friend…no cliche. He’s the first person I think of when I have good news, bad news, interesting tidbits, stressful days, exciting days…he’s seen me at my best and at my worst and 20 years in, we’re still walking this journey hand in hand. Happy Birthday Mr. Sellers! I love you!

Lovingly formed
Intricately crafted
Wonderful and complex
You entered the world on this day
A gift
So much more than meets the eye
So much more of your story to be written
A gift, my gift
Celebrating you today and always-LAS
