Cultivating Joy as a Fruit of the Spirit - a how-to for momsJoin the Joy Reset: https://shop.simplyconvivial.com/joy-resetChristians must remember that joy is a fruit of the Spirit. Joy does not originate from within us; it comes from the Holy Spirit. We can ask for joy, knowing that God delights in giving it. To increase joy, take a minute to pray, asking God to increase your joy for His glory. God provides joy by guiding us to walk in His way. As you ask for joy, stay open to the Holy Spirit's guidance. To increase the joy in your home, smile intentionally at each family member. Make someone laugh by doing or saying something funny. This simple act can significantly lighten the mood and atmosphere in your home. Share your experiences and results in the comments. Experiment with different ways to bring joy to those around you and observe the positive changes.00:00 Understanding Joy as a Fruit of the Spirit00:55 Praying for Increased Joy02:02 Practical Steps to Increase Joy at Home02:42 Using Humor to Lighten the AtmosphereMystie Winckler encourages moms to organize their attitudes and get traction at home so we are no longer overwhelmed or frustrated with homemaking.

Free challenge: https://simplyconvivial.com/octoberMaking kitchen life joyful! Identify a common complaint you have about your kitchen. Replace it with a written, related statement of gratitude.The kitchen sink is obnoxiously small and shallow. Now, the observation that the sink is small and shallow, especially compared to the sink I had before, is simply a fact. What makes it a complaint is when I make this observation out of irritation, as if I deserved better or can’t work under such oppressive circumstances. I add the drama. I am provoked. So, here’s my written gratitude statement: The kitchen sink might be inconvenient, but I’m so glad there’s a utility sink just a few feet away in the laundry room where I can wash and soak large pots and pans. What a blessing!Mystie Winckler encourages moms to organize their attitudes and get traction at home so we are no longer overwhelmed or frustrated with homemaking.

Kitchen cleaning week! Join the free challenge: https://simplyconvivial.com/octoberOur goal in working in our kitchen needs to not be about giving it a beige-linen aesthetic, but rather about keeping it functional. Even in a small kitchen, there are many areas to focus on. By choosing one area to work in consistently, we can make visible progress.I recommend making this focus area the sink area. Every kitchen has it, and it’s where the most repetitions must be put in - every time we cook or eat, dishes get dirty and need to be cleaned and then put away. That’s a lot of action. It makes a huge difference to our routines as homemakers when the most used areas have a bit more order and attention.First, start by washing all the dishes in and around your sink.
