What if joy isn’t something you chase, but something you practice? We open Nehemiah 8:10 and explore a simple, repeatable way to invite joy into an ordinary day: hourly gratitude. By shifting attention from what’s missing to what God is doing, we discover strength that doesn’t wobble with circumstances and a peace that survives the afternoon slump.

We talk about joy as a source of resilience rather than a reward for getting life right. That means choosing to remember God’s character, not just react to our checklist. You’ll hear how a quick habit—writing down one blessing or answered prayer each waking hour—interrupts worry loops, builds a record of grace, and trains your heart to notice help while it’s arriving. This isn’t toxic positivity; it’s spiritual clarity, the kind that steadies your next step when hopes are delayed or plans fall through.

We close with a short prayer, asking God to grow a thankful heart, especially in hard seasons. Whether today is heavy or light, this practice can lift your focus, renew your strength, and make space for joy to do its quiet, powerful work. If this resonates, save the episode, share it with someone who needs encouragement, and leave a quick review so others can find it. Then try the hourly gratitude list and tell us one blessing you noticed.

Still Standing: Living After the Silence, the Storm, and the Shattered Heart is the powerful second book in the Standing Series. Building on the best-selling Struggle to Standing, this new release guides you through life after heartbreak with hope, healing, and faith. Now available on Amazon in paperback, hardcover.
