Joy is a gift from God, it is also a practice we need to have. As the year ends it is easy to be aware of the disappointments from the year and where you did not see God in the ways you expected. To find joy we need to learn to see the unexpected King. The one born in a manger instead of a palace. The King has come. We need to be full of expectation while abandoning our agendas and picking God's vision and story over our own and the one from our world.The intentionally choose joy over worry and practice themselves into being joyous people, like our God is.
