What Gives Us Happiness?

What Gives Us Happiness?

"Happiness is within us." This statement is very true. We can get up in the morning and thank God for another day that he has given us, or we can look at it and dread what we think that might happen. We have to expect for God to bless us and give us another day to celebrate life. If you expect that everything is going to be negative, then that is just what you probably will have.

Trust in the Lord to take care of problems and needs and do the very best you know how to do, and the positive things will happen. Being positive gives us strength to expand our inner self, and helps us achieve. This brings out our inner happiness, and our lives will be full of contentment.

Life is full of worries and problems, but we can not let them consume us. People will hurt us, and sometimes it is knowingly, and sometimes it is unknowingly, but we have to ask God to help us get past it, and be forgiving and go on. God has a way of taking care of people who do us wrong in His own time. Every day will not be easy, but we have a higher power that we can turn to, and he is greater than any opposition we can face.

We can lose a dear family member or friend, and we feel that life will not go on without them. Given time, we begin to see that we can make it without this person. We have to cling to our faith that someday we will again be reunited in a place where there will be no sadness and loneliness. Thinking positive brings confidence and happiness.
