Many people are not really aware of the fact that one of the reasons God put us here, is to be happy. The Bible is full of verses about joy in our hearts, and that confuses some people about the joy of the Lord, and plain old human happiness.
A couple of examples. There are many situations in life that cause unhappiness. Family problems, financial, health, job, and the list goes on. When you're unhappy, you open the door to bad decisions, or behavior, that can and usually does lead to more unhappiness. We may even be angry with God and blame Him for all of our woes.
When we trust in God however and allow the Holy Spirit to guide us, we make good decisions. Those decisions result in success and happiness. When we allow God into our lives, we are in a position to help others, follow Jesus teachings, and live the way we were created:.
God put us here to know, love, and serve Him. He helps us every second of our lives, so we could have a good life and eternity with Him. He gave us the job of helping others in His name, so they could know, love, and serve Him. In so doing we are following the example that Jesus gave us. Remember that life is a series of choices, so choose well. God bless you and your family. Praise the Lord!
Remember Jesus Loves You
Prayer of Salvation
Lord Jesus, I thank you for what you did on the cross for me. Your blood washed away all my sins, by your stripes I was healed, your death and resurrection brought me salvation. Please forgive my sins, and come into my heart as my personal Savior.
Thank You Lord
Amen
