My Joy Today

Joyce Marie Sheldon ... Author, Inspirational Speaker, Caregiver Advocate

Faith is paramount in my life’s journey.

Trials and tribulations, fear and anxiety, have been my teachers;

courage and fortitude have been my priceless partners;

peace and fulfillment have been my glorious rewards.

My life journey has taken me into valleys of despair

and lifted me to mountaintops of joy and triumph.

I have walked beside the troubled teenager -

I have counseled the lonely and the lost -

I have comforted the sick and the dying -

Through the Grace of God

I have been given precious words

of faith and inspiration

to share with others.

My mission is to inspire and nurture the spiritual well-being of others.

This mission is accomplished through inspirational speeches and workshops,

individual faith coaching and interaction with caregivers.

What is it that you want?
What is it that will take your heart
and let it soar high above the mountain top
Up into the air like an eagle in flight
Unguarded
And unafraid
What is it?

Faith

When faith overcomes fear
When the power of the virtue
Surges high above the doubt
That is when the heart shall fly
And soar
And feel the freedom
That ultimate place
Of peace and serenity
Of confidence
And trust
That is when
The world will shrink
Into nothingness
And all that matters
Are two hearts
Joined together
In faith
