There are certainly times where men and women see things very differently - and they can become like a festering sliver in your hand.

This weekend I listened to a devotional where the speaker stated that joy does not come in large doses, it comes by teaspoons. And I have found that to be a profound truth. I think I look for joy to be abundant - large dosed - but the best joy comes in the work of small acts - “teaspoon” size! In my neighborhood, we have a brood of turkeys. They will eat in the farm fields near by and in all of the yards as well. They are interesting to watch. Tom Turkeys tend to be defenders - always fluffed up and ever watching the Hen Turkeys. In fact, a few mornings ago I watched the male turkeys go head to head with a black truck! They peck and slide when they feel they are being attacked.
So what did I learn about joy in watching them this morning? That nature sometimes presents itself to us to foster just that! Whether it is the colors of flowers, leaves on the trees, or interesting wildlife that requires us to slow down and spend time watching, learning, listening and seeing. This morning, I feel joyful in the nature around me. That “teaspoon” started my day and I am sure it will fill me for some time. Tell me if you have had a dose of joy today!
