It is not our position that makes us happy or unhappy, it’s our disposition. – R. Murray
Rehoboam took over the great kingdom of his father Solomon, and immediately got mad at the people. Hmm!
It takes all kinds of people to make up this crazy mixed-up world, unfortunately many are – sad, unhappy, depressed, etc. – and the truth is they don’t have to be that way, it all depends on how you look at life. God has gifted us with that life, but how we live it and enjoy its ups and downs, starts and stops, and sometimes indecipherable events is solely up to us as individuals. Material blessings may make life a bit more comfortable or easygoing, but they can never make one happy; for happiness is an attitude and heart choice. And though God says we should “choose life and its blessings;” He will not force us to do so. So if we’re waiting or looking for happiness, just know it’s been there all along.
Until Monday….
Pastor Botts
“A happy heart makes the face cheerful, but heartache crushes the spirit.” – Proverbs 15:13
