Engulfed in Joy was created not only to share the everyday joys of life with family and friends but to also provide a public way of expressing gratitude to an all loving Father in Heaven who has so richly blessed our lives - so much so that we feel as though pure joy cascades into our home and lives on a daily basis. What a great feeling it is to know of and experience the love of God every day. It is truly a great blessing, made all the more rich with the pure knowledge that is ours as we learn more about Him and seek to live by the commandments He has so lovingly given us to guide us along the path of life. No matter how thorny that path becomes, no matter how narrow or difficult it is to pass over, His divine guidance is available to all who seek it. That guidance will take us through the trials and challenges and difficulties we face, bless our lives with peace and contentment, and ultimately bring true happiness that can be gained no other way. True happiness is a happiness that is without regret, guilt or remorse. It encompasses a knowledge of truth - truth to others, truth to oneself and truth to God. As we are completely honest with ourselves and seek to live true to what we know is right, the joy and its associated blessings begin to flood into our lives, bringing with them, a warm and wonderful peace that can be had no other way - hence JOY, wonderful and exquisite, cascades into one's life as majestically as the most breathtaking waterfalls ENGULFING the spirit in streams of peace and happiness.
