103 Powerful Affirmations on Gratitude

103 Powerful Affirmations on Gratitude – 21 Day Challenge 

Gratitude is a powerful resource that most people typically do not use.  Gratitude can bring positivity into your world instantly. Simple words of thanks can help battle depression, anxiety and other mental issues because the mind is a powerful thing. Filling it full of positivity and gratitude is a natural boost

Things you have or don’t have do not determine the joy you experience.  YOU determine the joy you have and experience.  

We can teach our brain to notice the good, find the good and positivity and then express gratitude. 

My goal for this meditation is to help you create a habit of gratitude that will allow you to notice and even appreciate the littlest of things. 

This is life changing.  Our goal is to have you closing your eyes each night reflecting on the amazing things of your day, even if your day was not the greatest. 

Focusing on good as you go to sleep allows you to wake up refreshed with energy to face your day.  This is a habit we all need. 

Or you can start your day with gratitude. Either will be an amazing thing for your mind and body. 

Please join us each day for 21 Days to make this a habit! Let me know in the comments below so that I can encourage you during this journey! 

Thank you for joining me on this journey. I’m glad you are here. 

Get into a comfortable position.  Or if you are simply listening while you are starting your day and  getting your morning going, that is perfectly fine too.  When you can, take some time for yourself to stop and go through this meditation

Take a moment to take in a few deep breaths. This helps the body to relax.  If your mind begins to drift while you are breathing, it’s ok. Bring your attention back to your breathing 

Focus on my voice as you take relaxing breaths, relaxing your arms and hands. Letting the tension go in your legs and feet.  Relax your shoulders and neck as your breathing starts to return to normal. 

I am grateful for my past and how it prepares me to be my best self

Psalms to Comfort

This year has been tough on so many! So many people have broken hearts, health issues, depression and chronic illness battles.

It can feel like it is never ending! When you don’t know what to do, where to find comfort or feel like you cannot make it, turn to Psalms in your Bible. So much comfort and raw emotion is found there.

You’ll quickly see you are not alone.

Here is a video that discusses just 31 Verses of Comfort from the book of Psalms.

May you empty your heart of hurt and allow God to fill it with His love, remembrance of past victories and peace that only He can give!

What is YOUR favorite Psalm? I’d love to know.

Joyfully Yours,

Marie

Christmas Joy 2020

Christmas Joy

Christmas is just weeks away and while Covid is preventing us from gathering this Christmas Season, we will still be Spreading Joy to families this year.  It will just look a little different, that’s all. 


We are going to collect 3 nice gifts for as many children as possible, purchase a stocking or treat bag for their candy (you didn’t think I’d skip out on the “candy store” now did you?) and a small gift for the mom if we can. 

making a difference for families


We will have reach out to those that usually come and volunteer in person to see if they would like to help deliver the gifts, as I would never keep that joy for myself.  When we are Spreading Joy to others, our hearts are flooded with joy!

Making a difference for families this Christmas

 
Even though things are a little different this year, you can still get involved: 

  1. Donate – via paypal (over on the right side panel or if you are on a mobile, scroll towards the bottom and all of the side panel items will show up)  
  2. Donate – Via check – Mail to SJC PO Box 1771 Denver NC 28037
  3. Adopt a Child – Email me and ask for a name and age of the desired child. Let me know if you prefer a boy or girl and how many gifts you can get them.  If you can only do one, that is perfectly fine too.  
  4. Share via Social Media – Share this article via Facebook, Twitter, Parler and other Social Media Sites. You never know who is looking to make a difference and will see it and help others out. 
  5. Ask Family and Friends – Ask Family and Friends to get toys or Giftcards from Mcdonalds or Walmart in the amount of $20 that we can use for the older kids. 
  6. Mail Gift Cards to us – We are going to use Gift Cards along with things like Socks, headphones etc – for gifts for the older children.  $20 from McDonalds or Walmart would be a huge help. 
  7. Candy – Hop on Amazon – using smile.amazon.com of course – and purchase bagged candy with free shipping and send to us for their bags/stockings. 

Thank you guys for always Spreading Joy with us!

thank you for spreading joy

We know we cannot do this alone and we would never want to.  With so many of us coming together, we can encourage others in this discouraging time with ease! 

thank you for loving the forgotten kids


You guys are a blessing! It has been an honor Spreading Joy with you since 2008!  I’m thankful for you and your heart for others! 


Please take a moment to visit our past events here. 

Thanks again, be safe and be blessed!

God Is | Reminders to Get Christians through Trying Times

Going through tough times? REMEMBER WHO God is!

God IS CALM

God IS Peace

God IS the answer to all our heart needs

Our hearts can get so focused on the issues that are surrounding us -- covid19, unemployment, sickness, chronic illness, loss of loved one, wrong decisions etc. that we FORGET WHO God IS!

Anxiety consumes us and we literally forget all the miraculous things God has done for us.

What is God to you? Who is He to you?

Unconditional JOY | Joyful Meditation to EASE Anxiety & Promote Positive Self Esteem

Unconditional Joy LIVES in YOU! It’s not in the promotion, the gifts, or even the lavish vacations you can never seem to afford. JOY is there in YOU right now! Often the issues of the day, the fears, and even the “what if” covers up the joy within you so that it seems it can never be found.

Never forget that you are enough! Sometimes your heart just needs to be reminded. Listen daily and be encouraged.

Choosing JOY doesn’t mean you are avoiding the issues you deal with on a day to day basis.

It allows you to deal with them in a positive way, finding the good that was buried in the chaos that sometimes steals away precious moments of joy.

Encouragement in Tough Times

This year has been unlike anything we imagined it would be. Times are tough, hearts are discouraged and anxiety is at an all-time high. Encouragement is so needed in these tough times.

I’m praying you are well, healthy and things are good with you and your family.

I know so many who are facing uncertainty due to jobs, chronic illness etc and needs some extra encouragment.

I wanted to start encouraging others in a different format than just writing. I love speaking and with covid19, there just many opportunities to do so anymore – so enter youtube.

I’m adding encouraging – SHORT – Videos to encourage your heart. Here are a few here and hope they will encourage you.

Please – if you don’t mind, subscribe so that as I release these, you can view and share the encouragement.

The Shrouded Sword

The Shrouded Sword

This post may contain affiliate links. They don’t cost you anything but earn me a small commission. Thank you for supporting Spreading Joy.

The Shrouded Sword is a fantastic read! Author Owen Minter takes us on a journey where siblings are dreading their Christmas Break because they are staying with their uncle who is a recluse in Deadmoor, Virginia and they have been told that there is no internet or cell service, so their usual means of entertaining themselves will be unavailable for the time being. The siblings have no way of knowing the magical adventure that awaits them.

Ethan and Jynx Moseby are free to roam through the majestic mansion with the exception of the Solar Room. That is the only place that is off-limits. To their delight, they soon discover the mansion is alive and are embarking on the journey of a lifetime with one of the local kids that has always been fascinated with Socrates Maupin and his home.

This is a wonderful read that anyone who loves magic, mystery and decoding ciphers will fall in love with.

Minter takes us through the complexities of an ever-changing maze, time hops, and challenging riddles while sprinkling in pirates, goblins and other fantastic mythical creatures that join us on this good versus evil odyssey.

You’ll be captivated as you navigate your way through the whimsey, wit and pure fun of the Shrouded Sword.

In true Spreading Joy fashion, we are giving away another signed copy of the Shrouded Sword.  To enter to win, simply hop over to twitter (the post below) and show me a photo of what you are currently reading. It’s that easy.

Your Kids need something to read? This would be a great book for them too.

Large Print Bible Word Search Book

I love living in the age of technology and having the ability to look up anything that my heart desires at a moments notice.  I also love non-technical things too, like reading actual books, puzzle books, and being completely disconnected. Speaking of puzzle books, have you seen the Large Print Bible Word Search Book? 


When you want to completely disconnect from the online world, this is a colorful and inspiring way to do so! 


The Large Print Bible Word Search Book has 100 puzzles for adults! And while you are playing, you are reviewing the books of the Bible with various highlighted scripture. 


Everyone knows that exercising the brain and staying mentally active by working puzzles improves our moods but did you know that research shows that we have a greater chance of avoiding or delaying Alzheimer’s and dementia? 


One of the things I love about this book is that God and the Lord is in every puzzle – as it should be. 


You can flip through and do the easier puzzles first or you can find your favorite book of the Bible and do those puzzles first.  There really isn’t a right or wrong way…just have fun while being disconnected from technology! 


Authors Cristina and Rick Smith were kind enough to give us an answer key for those harder puzzles.  Much like my families game night our entire life, this brother and sister duo have been solving puzzles together while growing up together. What wonderful memories to treasure. 

How do you and your family disconnect from technology? Do you have game night? Puzzle night? Do you guys all have your own word search books? Cross Word Puzzles your thing or do you all work on those thousand piece puzzles that I could never get the hang of? 

Get a copy of this Puzzle book for those puzzle lovers in your world! 
Get a few for a local Nursing Home! Get one for yourself! The book is available for pre-order on Amazon.com NOW and officially launches on December 17, 2019.

Comment below with how you disconnect to be entered to win a copy of this Puzzle book!  Giveaway ends Saturday December 7th 2019!

//

Disclosure: I was given a copy in exchange for an honest review. I am not required to give a positive review but I love this puzzle book and recommend it for the puzzle lover in your life.

Disclosure 2: Affiliate links were used in this post, meaning if you do purchase said puzzle book, a small portion of your purchase will come back to SJC at NO extra cost to you. That’s a WIN Win in my book, so thank you for helping out.
