Note from the author:
Writing a devotional book about hope and joy can be tricky because it has the connotation that I am the most hopeful and joyful person on the planet…that flowers spring up where I step and some type of musical montage starts when I enter the room.
This is not the case.
In fact, if you happen to see me in my car in a bit of traffic one day, I hope my face shows the hope and joy in my heart rather than any other emotion or the hormones running through my veins!
I wrote this devotional book because I am on my own joy journey.
I am learning that choosing hope and joy in the middle of chaos and difficult circumstances is not some form of unrealistic optimism — there is actual power in the act of living hopeful and there is joy in knowing we are deeply loved by God in the middle of our imperfections.
This devotional book contains a splattering of lessons God has taught me through some of my own “Dorie stories” that I pray will be helpful to those wanting more hope and joy in their lives!
