My soul doth magnify the Lord,
And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.

Joy is the net of love by which we can capture souls. God loves the person who gives with joy. Whoever gives with joy gives more. The best way to show our gratitude to God and to people is to accept with joy.

Joy is a net of love by which you can catch souls.

We may not be able to give much but we can always give the joy that springs in a heart that is in love with God.

frThe Spirit comes gently and makes himself known by his fragrance. He is not felt as a burden for God is light, very light. Rays of light and knowledge stream before him as the Spirit approaches. The Spirit comes with the tenderness of a true friend to save, to heal, to teach, to counsel, to strengthen, and to console.

Like Jesus we belong to the world living not for ourselves but for others. The joy of the Lord is our strength.
