    Happy Friday Jonny, I am just catching up on your videos. Hope you can find your joy. Sounds like you’re secure in your physical stressors and are grateful for all the lord has provided. Also sounds like you have a very supportive wonderful wife and family. When I get in these moods I try to think about how others are suffering and how I might help them. I also try to do one tiny thing that I find joyful every day. Sometimes it’s just praising God for my comfortable bed at the end of a long day. Maybe I am misreading you and you are very happy. Forgive me if this is the case. I only wanted to help if I could. I have had 2 occasions to use antidepressants in my life. During very dark times when the black hole overwhelmed me. But after a few months I stopped because they tend for me to make me flat with little care for anything. I found my own way with the lords help of course these last 30 years. A walk in the sun or sitting outside in the sun. A day with a friend or helping someone in need. A special treat, looking back on a favorite pic or an encouraging text, a Bible verse, or favorite book reread. Listening to my water fall. Theses things have changed how I cope with life that is less than perfect here. You’re blessed in so many ways I’m sure you know. This world is extremely hard to be in anymore and I share your views on much of that. I limit the news to staying informed but also realizing I can do little to change it. This is all in God’s plan - the good and the bad. I’m glad you have a Christian counselor you trust. It’s important to not stay closed off. God did say it is not good for man to be alone. I hope you take to heart this encouragement and find a little something I shared here to help you. Sorry, if it’s more than you need. Have a happy day and dream about something pleasant. Seeing is believing. God is always with you.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

      I am 72 years old and have been a Christian 54 years. I have lived a difficult life, but the Lord keeps me-us going. I have come to see the only way I can make it from one day to the next is to exercise faith-seek the Lord for the strength to keep going-I am thankful that I made it through this day and tomorrow I will look to the Lord to get me through another 24 hours-just keep going-can't stop so keep looking to the Lord for grace-the best way to keep myself sane is to live a simple life-wait out time doing things like reading books-writing in my paper diary-praying-talking to my wife when she is around-the days go by-we are blessed living in a quiet neighborhood with food and a roof over our head-take one day at a time-maybe next year America will be in a Civil War-who knows what the future holds? So I will look to the Lord to keep me-us going down the Narrow Way. I see a Psychologist because I can and I just sit and talk tell him the same old stories over and over-I do not have anybody else to talk to besides my wife and my Psychologist gets paid to hear me ramble on about nothing-I can either sit and write or go see a Psychologist and ramble-thank you for sharing-blessings

      I hear you Jonny, this world is not our home for sure heaven must be amazing. I guess there are many levels of Joy and contentment. I do think Joy is a choice with God’s good grace we can find much happiness in this world even in these dark days. My heart goes out to you in only wanting to help you find a bit more of your own joy along your journey. I appreciate your videos and Christian content. I’ve gotten many tips on good books for my own collection here. I find joy just seeing all you have a mast. I find great pleasure in searching for books and completing collections. I’m still working towards my own library 📚 and hope for that day of completion. My time is just very limited with grand girl watching, work, and normal chores. But as you say I’ll just keep seeking g the lords guidance and moving on that narrow path. Hope you have a bright and sunny day. Blessings,
      Laurie
