Why I Count it all Joy Wednesday

Welcome to Why I Count It All Joy Wednesday!! To join in on all the JOY, grab my button, make your own JOY list, it doesn’t have to be long, one thing, one hundred things, it doesn’t matter, just find your JOY and come back and link up so you can share it with us.  Remember JOY is contagious!!
I am filled with JOY because it is the day that no matter what else is going on, I reflect on and share some of the JOYs in my life!!
I am filled with JOY because Drew has been headache free for about 2 weeks and we saw a Neurologist today and things are looking good with all that!!  Praise Jesus!!
I am filled with JOY because I am having a date day with my sweet twin boys today!!
I am filled with JOY because I have been praying for Joanne for about two weeks and we are now getting great reports from her husband!!  If you don’t know about Joanne, she is a mom and wife who suffered a major stroke and has been in critical condition since.  You can follow her blog, which her husband is doing now, here.
I am filled with JOY because this past weekend our pastor’s message was entitled “I Quit - complaining”  It was wonderful, a great word, and really encouraged us to find the JOY instead of complaining!!
I am filled with JOY because my sweet little grandbaby Slaid has really started smiling and responding to us and it just makes my heart sing!!
I am filled with JOY because even though Shane deploys on Feb. 25th, we still have a month of laughter left!!
I am filled with JOY because last night both the grandkids were here and I sat and watched my sweet hubby sit in the floor holding both of them!!  He is such a great Papo!!
I am filled with JOY because I have a house to live in, a car to drive, some money in the bank, food in my pantry, a wonderful family who loves me, and a risen Savior who makes it all possible!!
I am filled with JOY because some of you love to spread the JOY as much as I do!!
Light is shed upon the righteous and joy on the upright in heart. Rejoice in the LORD, you who are righteous, and praise his holy name. Psalm 97:11-12
What is bringing you JOY this week??
Counting it all Joy!!

I'm so glad Joanne is improving. That was a tragic story and such a freak thing to happen. Makes you stop and think, that's for sure.
I love your love for your family my friend. It just pours through you!
Enjoy them!
