A Prayer for When You Don’t Feel Cheerful

APPLE PODCASTS    †     SPOTIFY 

My dog, Mr. Trek, loves to sit in the rays of sunshine in the morning. You can find him by the front window in our home, catching the early rays peeking through the glass. A little bit later, when the sun is a bit higher, He moves to another window Into a little triangle of white that pokes through the trees. As the sun rises directly above the house about noon, I have a sad dog. He mopes around until the sun begins to creep back over the back of the house, and I can find him move to his new location to enjoy the afternoon rays. He’s constantly chasing the warmth, the glow. I think so often this is what our experience with joy looks like. We bask in slivers or rays of joy and then it moves just enough to be out of reach or unattainable.

Today’s prayer is adapted from Choosing Cheer, by Nicolet Bell, Host of the Choosing Cheer Podcast. Listen to today’s podcast, here!
