MY WORD FOR MAY 27th IS HAPPY!

My word for May 27^th is HAPPY

One day years ago Jay asked me if you could have anything in the world what would that be?  I thought for a moment and then replied “happiness”.  He looked at me funny as if to be saying “Why that?”  I felt I needed to give an answer so I said, “When you are happy everything is good, you are happy, healthy and you smile.”  I don’t think Jay thought I would ever pull out the word happy, but that is how I feel and I still feel that way today.  If you had one wish what would you wish for?  If you could have anything in the world what would it be?  Take a moment and think about it, would you choose happiness or something else?

When you are walking with the Lord you have no other choice than to be happy.  You may go through a period of adversity that causes you some sadness, but you still rotate around to find that happy place again.  God wants us to be happy.  He grieves when we are unhappy, when we are filled with discontent.  Just as we are sad when our own children are unhappy.  Happiness comes for Godly living.  It is music in harmony with everything around you.  Happiness consists of not having, but of being.  It is not of possessing, but of enjoying.  Happiness dwells in the heart.  When happiness lives in our hearts we can dance in any type of weather, whether the sun is shining or the clouds are dripping rain.  To have everyday a happy day, everyday should be devoted to the Lord.  A day full of the presence of God will be a day that is absent of fear and grief.  We will be able to see the good in every situation.  The joy of the Lord is said to be our strength.   (Psalm 118:24) This is the day the Lord hath made let us rejoice and be glad in it, be happy and rejoice in it.  When we find joy and happiness it is easy to love others, to help others, and to give to others. 

The power of happy and love heals.  Take time everyday to have your own “Happy Hour” doing something that makes you happy.  During your journey of 2012, “Don’t worry be happy”!

Dear Lord we know that by being in your presence everyday we can’t help but be happy.  Help us to go to our happy place everyday and spend time with You.  Happiness leads to many other things in our lives being productive.  During this year of 2012 help us to have more happy times.  Assist us in always putting on a happy face. 

Isaiah 55:12 NIV "You will go out in joy and be led forth in peace; the mountains and hills will burst into song before you, and all the trees of the field will clap their hands."
