 ~ Just Joyful Jokes ~



Most of you who are reading this know that I love to write and read. I am an avid collector of good, clean, and cranial humour and greatly appreciate when I find more and when you send more to me!

It has been noted that a good, hearty laugh relieves physical tension and stress, leaving your muscles relaxed for up to 45 minutes afterwards. Also, laughter boosts the immune system. Further to that, findings show that laughter and joy decrease stress hormones and increase immune cells and infection-fighting antibodies, thus improving our resistance to disease(s). All-in-all, those are pretty good reasons for seeking occasions of being joyful, don't you agree?

I hope this writing adds to your joy and indeed be good medicine and healing for your whole being!!

As I close, I thought I would insert 2 of my favourite scriptures referencing 'joy' for you to enjoy again ...

“But now I am coming to you, and these things I speak in the world, that they may have My joy fulfilled in themselves” (John 17:13).

"Therefore, since we have such a great cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let us also get rid of every weight and entangling sin. Let us run with endurance the race set before us, focusing on Yeshua, the initiator and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before Him, He endured the cross, disregarding its shame; and He has taken His seat at the right hand of the throne of God (Hebrews 12:1-2)."

~ Homeward Bound ~

Photo October 2022

Through a personal relationship with Jesus, we find God and by intimate study and prayer through Holy Spirit's power and wisdom we are made wise and we grow strong(er).

Love and communication - are two rich soils in which we can nurture trust and faithfully tend our relationships with God and others. With great care as we set our feet upon the narrow path, that He has chosen for each one of us, we will grow. In love. In Peace. In Joy. In Patience. Kindness. In Goodness. In Faithfulness. In Gentleness. In Self-Control. Always evidenced in the ways we live and the words we express toward our awesome Father, ourselves and our neighbours on the journey Home. 💕✝🎶

Psalm 119:105, Galatians 5:22-23


My prayer for today ... 

It is me again, Lord, Rose Naomi, your daughter. I love being in relationship with You - what a way, what a joy to start each new day conversing with the One who loves me without conditions!!!!

This morning, I ask You, my God, to continue guiding me into becoming the person You have created/designed me to be. To Love the way You do - Mark 12:30-31.

May I not allow fear, nor envy, nor jealousy, nor strife, nor discontent, nor anything else negative to cloud my view of Your plan for my life from this day forward.

Father in Heaven, help me to keep my eyes firmly turned toward Your Son, Yeshua Messiah ( Christ Jesus ) as the Way, the Truth and the Light and soooo much more. Through Him, You go with me every step of the way, ‘Never will I leave you.’ - Hebrews 13:5 & Deuteronomy 31:6

As I journey through the rest of my life, Lord, God, I know that my path will cross with all those you need me to meet and know. Equipped with divine wisdom from Ruach Ha Kodesh ( Holy Spirit ), may I carefully observe, find hope, share compassionately & love each of my neighbours as myself as I travel the path yet set before me, one step at a time.

I thankfully come before You, Adonai with these things today as I trust in You with all my heart, knowing that You alone provide my dress/covering, the Full Armour of Almighty God, for my daily walk!

Through it all, I remember that the battle indeed is Yours!

In Jesus's name. Amen
