God Joy: A personal experience planned and initiated by our Creator. While you might be an observer, or you might be a participant, it brings a joy that fills to overflowing, and you feel compelled to pass that joy on to others–the joy of God, His love and care. (author’s definition)

Even before I got on my hands and knees to scrounge under the bed, I knew I would only find rolls of Christmas wrapping paper stored there. I looked anyway. A search in the hall closet revealed any available gift bags were either Christmas or feminine in nature. I settled on some plain white tissue paper and found some brown ribbon to hold the two packages together. I wanted the gifts to be “just right,” but banked on the fact the little boy receiving them probably wouldn’t even notice. Or care.
