The Joy of the Lord, {thoughts from "Inside Out"}

God's Boys will be good boys!

I never would've watched the movie, for the girl's talking about how sad it made them. It didn't make me sad. I know we went through bad stuff with moving and whatnot. That is the reality of our situation. That movie looked like a movie about children and adult's growing up and finding the "Joy of Living!"amidst the situations of life. There were so many truths in the midst of that good family friendly movie. I loved it.

Some loves and friends and memories are living long in the long-term and all memories have mixed emotions the further you get away from them. Maturity to adulthood has collapses of real and happy memories for new ones of every hue. It is scary when the old good memories start fading and the old bad memories fade also. It is maturity that carries us over the line.

The most important lesson that I got from that movie, is to make sure the "Joy of the Lord" is a very strong factor in your child rearing. Put that as a priority and it will strengthen the personality and emotions of your young people. Collapses will happen to everyone, but God has undergird the soul with His strength when He is prioritized. Try to remember that!
