January JOY!

Update: A viewer protested that he could not read what I had written on the pages of my journal as I had only allowed ten seconds per spread view before the next spread presented itself in the flip-through video below, so to indulge him, I'm going to pad this article a little more, in case he would like to make a positivity journal himself. 😉

Definitions of Good Words 

JOY - According to the internet, the spiritual meaning of joy is a deep cheerfulness and gladness of heart. It is happiness and a calm spirit. It is said that Christian joy has a constant property. It can be outwardly be eclipsed sometimes by grief or shock, fear or sin, but nevertheless it is or should be something that abides in the life of the believer. 

and 

GOOD - possessing desirable qualities, moral excellence, kind, sufficient, complete, not blemished or spoiled, pleasure giving, valuable and useful. In man, goodness is not a mere passive quality but the deliberate preference of right to wrong, the firm and persistant resistance of all moral evil, and the choosing and following of all moral good.
