Surprised by Joy


With an eye focused on the poor, a heart trusting that we will get what we need, and a spirit always surprised by joy, we will exercise true power and walk through this valley of darkness performing and witnessing miracles. God’s power becomes ours and goes out from us wherever we go and to whomever we meet.


“I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want.”

- Philippians 4: 12


Reflection Question: Do you tend to have a “scarcity” mindset or an “abundance” mindset - and what connection does that have to your experience of God’s power in your life?
