Life Is Short, Be Happy

Greetings to all, on this Saturday, may each of us have a chance to feel some release from the burdens of life and that we experience abundant joy and happiness. Amen

Even though there is no getting around having difficulties in this life, it doesn't mean that we can't be and won't experience joy and happiness. It is written that as long as we live, we will have trouble in our short lives. Some people have a natural ability to deal with and solve problems they face, while others struggle and can't overcome them.

Job 14:1-2 (NKJV)

1 "Man who is born of woman Is of few days and full of trouble.

2 He comes forth like a flower and fades away; He flees like a shadow and does not continue.

There is so much talk about stress and the mental illness that occur. The good thing is that it's becoming more and more acceptable to talk about and even seek help. It will be our ability to recognize and seek the support needed to solve the difficulties in our lives that will determine what type of life we have.

John 10:10 (RSV)

10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.

Lesson: Take some time today and focus not on the problems and the things that make us worry. Let us find joy and be happier than we've ever been.
