"But happy are those . . . whose hope is in the LORD their God" - Psalm 146:5 / NLT
Happiness depends less upon our circumstance than upon our thoughts. When we turn our thoughts to God, to His gifts, and to His glorious creation, we experience the joy that God intends for His glorious creation. But, when we focus on the negative aspects of life, we suffer needlessly.
Do you sincerely want to be a happy Christian? Then set your mind and your heart upon God's love and His grace. The fullness of life in Christ is available to all who seek it and claim it. Count yourself among that number. Seek first the salvation that is available through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, and then claim the joy, the peace, and the spiritual abundance that the Shepherd offers His sheep.
