The Cure for a Rude and Hurtful World

Posted on by

Tasha Tudor once said that when the shadows of gloom are in the world, it is then we need to “take” joy.

I have had one heck of summer dealing with a rude and hateful world. Okay. Maybe I am being dramatic here, but I am so eager to begin a new fall season, one that always brings me joy.

Just the other day, I realized how the simple task of picking pumpkins put a smile on my face.

St. Francis used to say that simple joys were holy. He is right.

So join me my friends for this episode where we revisit our joy jars (I introduced this to you in January) and talk about how seizing joy each day can indeed help us cope with a world that is getting ruder by the minute.

If you don’t have a joy jar and would like me to share a joy with you from mine, leave a comment or email me at accidentalcountrypastor@gmail.com.

And share with us all your recent joy or joys!

Blessings!

  2. I would love for you to share one of your joys from your joy jar, please.  Thanks so much. Please know I really enjoy reading or watching everything you produce. It makes me happy every time I see that you have posted  Melinda Repp Sanderson

    • I am so glad you enjoy your time here at the farm with me!!! I just dipped into my Joy Jar and this is what I pulled out,
      “Joy for a hen that is molting, reminding me how God prepares us for changing seasons.”

      Hmm, definitely something to ponder for today as chickens’ will lose their feathers and grow new ones in the spring and in the fall to prepare for a change in the weather. I wonder what feathers I need to lose and what new ones I need to grow for new seasons in my life? Again, so wonderful to get your note!!! Blessings to you! Donna
