How to be happy?
Bible: Psalm 146
Reading
God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble (V.1).Whoever trusts in the Lord, happy is he (PROVERBS 16:20 NKJV).
Everyone wants to be happy. But not many end up finding real happiness—
and definitely not a happiness that lasts. The reason is simple: most
people are looking for happiness in the wrong places.
Proverbs 16:20 tells us, “Whoever trusts in the Lord, happy is he”
(nkjv). And Psalm 146:5 says that happiness and fulfilment comes to those
who find their help and hope in God.
Happiness comes from a real, personal relationship with God. But to
really experience that happiness, we must also work at it. I found this list of
things that can help us be happy:
- Give something away.
- Be kind.
- Always be thankful.
- Give energy to everything you do.
- Spend time with people who are older than you, and learn from them.
- Make sure you smile during each day.
- Pray to know God’s way.
- Plan as though you will live forever—you will.
- Live as though today is your last day on earth.
- Never take your eyes off Jesus.
These are excellent ideas for living a happy life. And, perhaps
surprisingly, every single one of them comes from the Bible! “Praise
the Lord. Praise the Lord, my soul. I will praise the Lord all my life; I will sing
praise to my God as long as I live” (PSALM 146:1-2)
TRUSTING GOD BRINGS TRUE HAPPINESS.
