"Always be joyful. Never stop praying. Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you who belong to Christ Jesus."-1Thess.5:16-18NLT
"The best things are nearest: Breath in your nostrils, light in your eyes, flowers at your feet, duties at your hand, the path of God just before you."-Robert Louis Stevenson.
It's so easy to get stressed out, frustrated, upset and unhappy...But isn't it so much better to simply be HAPPY??? No matter your circumstances, you truly can be. It's up to you. "We tend to forget that happiness doesn't come as a result of getting something we don't have, but rather of recognizing and appreciating what we do have."-Frederick Koenig. The Lord gives us a million blessings daily and yet sometimes we are so focused on what's going wrong...that we don't even recognize all that's going right. Today, practice being happy. See how much your day improves. No matter what issues arise...consider all of the ways that it could be worse and thank the Lord that it isn't. Trust God so that worry doesn't block your ability to appreciate. God will provide for you; have faith, and enjoy life. If you are reading this right now...I can name a few things to be thankful for: You can see, you can comprehend, you own the luxury of a computer, if you have a computer, I'm assuming that you have a roof over your head, and electricity running throughout your home. "Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things."-Robert Brault. Sometimes, when I remember, I thank the Lord for each and every one of my senses one by one, and for all of my working limbs and organs. It may sound silly, but I couldn't imagine how much it would effect my life if just one of those things stopped working. "Hem your blessings with thankfulness so they don't unravel."-unknown. Be Happy today---you can accomplish this by simply being grateful for all things, great and small.
God Bless and Be a Blessing to Others:)
