Start This Day with Joy

Happiness is yours today.  You will know joy today.  You are making the right decisions, which lead directly to the door of contentment today.  Today open up and give joy back to another.

Everyone wants to be joyful and happy.  Is there a difference between joy and happy?  Maybe there is a difference in the direct meaning of the two word, joy and happiness, but who really cares about splitting hairs.  You want that feeling of security, hope and accomplishment, which result in whatever you want to call it, joy…happiness.

Today, right now, is the day you place all past failures in the recycle box and God turns them into joy.  Decide today to think positive, act positive, have faith in God and life will result in joy more abundant.

Ok, you have problems, which person doesn’t.   However, you don’t have to lay around in self-pity, get up and get going and find ways of changing your situation or accepting life on life’s terms.  Nevertheless, in the middle of trouble you can still know joy.  How can you find joy in the midst of the storm?  Faith, believe that all things are working out the way God wants them to and just hold on in joy until the storm passes over.

Start this day with joy.  The moment you are awake enough to rejoice in the day rejoice.  Look for the good.  Open your windows and see the beauty of nature.  Listen to a bird and be thankful you can hear.  Open the refrigerate and be thankful you have food.  If you don’t have any food sell your computer and buy some or go to work…. Kidding of course but truthfully you have to make choices.  Choose this day to be happy, free, and loving.  See the good and the good will come to you like a flood.
