Quiet Time Coaching Episode 310

“So the people went out and brought back branches and built themselves temporary shelters on their own roofs, in their courtyards, in the courts of the house of God and in the square by the Water Gate and the one by the Gate of Ephraim. The whole company that had returned from exile built temporary shelters and lived in them. From the days of Joshua son of Nun until that day, the Israelites had not celebrated it like this. And their joy was very great.”

Nehemiah 8:16-17

Sometimes the best way to recapture our joy is to go back to scenes of joy in the past. This week I had a delightful experience of recapturing gratitude for something that happened 37 years ago.

What helps you to recapture your spiritual joy?
