God,
I’m feeling a bit weighed down lately, and I could really use a dose of joy. It’s so easy to get caught up in the everyday hustle and forget the lightness that comes from you. Help me to find those little moments of happiness, the laughter with friends, and the beauty in simple things. Remind me that joy doesn’t always have to be big or loud; sometimes it’s just a quiet whisper in my heart. Fill my spirit with your presence so I can share that joy with others, too. Help me to cultivate gratitude for what I have and to lean into the joy that’s always there, waiting for me to recognize it. Amen.
