Get ready as we travel back in time on a cross-country move my family made when I was a kid. We went from Pennsylvania to California, complete with a stop at the Grand Canyon. Catch this though, I had a "rabbit obsession" that totally derailed my attention from the tour guide and the amazing beauty around me. With that said though, this hiccup led me to an epiphany about the power of awe. That feeling of being small and amazed by the world around us. The Bible is full of examples of awe and wonder at God's creation. So, let's embrace that jaw-dropping feeling of awe and appreciate the beauty of the world, and the awesomeness of God.

We've been talking about emotions that don't always get a lot of attention, and today I want to talk about this feeling of joy. When you feel joy about something, it's good for you all over... from the top of your head all the way to your feet. Joy is great medicine. It helps our lives come into color. It helps our bodies feel better, and it's the way that God created us to live. Joy is such a beautiful emotion that God has given us to experience. Even when life throws curveballs, joy is still possible!

If you're feeling bored and uninspired, it's time to shake things up! Boredom is actually an opportunity for creativity. Take a cue from the journey of the Hebrews from Egypt to embrace boredom as a chance to think differently and try new things, rather than complaining. Contentment, even in boredom, is a great gain.

Imagine yourself lounging in a hammock, feeling as content as a cat in the warmth of the sunlight. These moments of calm can be rare in our busy lives, where stress is often an unwelcome companion. This week, we're visiting a powerful story about Jesus who, during a crazy stressful storm, actually took a nap! It's a great reminder to pull out when you're not feeling calm.

We also have a fun quick tip to help you re-focus in stressful times: try snacking on something sour, such as tangy candy or a zesty lemon. You'd be surprised at how this simple trick can help! We hope this all inspires YOU to find a peace & calm in the middle of any stress or anxiety you're feeling today.
