As you honor my father today, please honor my mother, as well. She was the architect of the King Legacy and founder of @TheKingCenter, which she founded less than three months after Daddy died. Without #CorettaScottKing, there would be no #MLKDay. #MLK#BelovedCommunity
Let’s get married and have kids so instead of enjoying a glass of wine and a movie you can watch Peppa’s Christmas for the 86th time while I go outside and figure out why the giant inflatable Santa isn’t blowing up.
Two words:
HOLY OPTIMISM
It’s not denial or avoidance. It’s hope that surges in the face of real struggle.
It’s perspective.
It’s promise.
Ask the Father to give it to you. You’re going to need it.
Superficial happiness is dependent on circumstances. Christian joy is much different. It’s rooted in your personal relationship w/the Lord. That kinda joy is resilient even in the midst of hard times. The real secret to a joyful life is to continually be filled w/The Holy Spirit.
