Heartfelt and Homemade: J.O.Y.

J.O.Y.

J.O.Y

Jesus first. Others second. Yourself last.

We are called to love one another. To love one another is to put them above your self. You will find true JOY in doing so. An act of love has the power to change lives, yours as well as theirs. Show some love…

You can show some love by sharing some homemade goodies.

Milk and Cookies soothe the soul…warm the heart…pacify the sweet tooth. They excite the inner child in us. Grow yourself a milk mustache and eat a cookie with a friend on this cold, rainy, wet day…Share some loving and reap the JOY.

Happy Monday!
