Post of the week from these parts:

How To Find Joy On Hard Days: Your Free Joy Calendars 2026″

I can’t stop thinking about what a woman tells me over dinner last week:

“I can’t explain how it’s changed my life, Ann: Only when I keep counting gifts, do I learn how to keep counting it all joy.

I set my glass of water down on the table like she’s just  dropped her mic. 

This is God-Math: Unless you’re counting your gifts and gratitudes, you don’t know how to count it all joy in your trials. 


Friends!! You Asked! And They are Finally Here!
