Justine Froelker Courageous Advent

Find your glimmer.

Joy can feel elusive during the busy holiday season. 

So many of us hustling for happy and comfort when, in reality, we’re looking in the wrong places, and those things simply can’t be hustled for.

Advent reminds us that joy isn’t found—it’s chosen.

It’s in the courage to laugh despite and in spite of the mess, and because we must. To see beauty in the ordinary and everywhere. To embrace the imperfect moments because that’s where the glory of humanity lies.

What’s one tiny spark of joy you can embrace today?

Find your glimmer. Maybe even create it.

Because joy, even in the smallest measure, is enough.
