I had spent many hours in dialogue yesterday and today with my son re: the changes that he is going through in his marriage and parenting. Jim's song about changes and your words really spoke to our condition as i forwarded it to him as well. We knew Jim from Reba Place Fellowship in the Early 70's and knew the song, It brought tears to my eyes. The joy you brought at this particular moment is helping the healing! .

Keep joy in our hearts? Of course we can Jodi, and we must! Change can and does threaten us. But it also means renewal. Does it put us off center? Yeah, but if we 'go with the flow' who knows where that will take us! So thanks, and enjoy the journey! Can we move towards the Good News? Keep joy in our hearts? Of course we can Jodi, and we must!

Your words and the song captivated me. I found the lyrics for all the verses in the May 1, 2011, issue of "The Mennonite" in a column by Donna Mast. Thank you, Jodi.

The two lines about "keeping joy in our heart" and "there will be faces, carrying sunshine" are particularly meaningful for me today. I think I listened to the song at least 5 times. Blessings!
