Together with kindness and in understanding let’s take this time to self reflect. I am here to inspire, encourage, and remind you that God has given us the most important weapon we have, his word.

Now let’s dress our souls like we dress our bodies, EVERYDAY.

Happiness is…….

“Rejoice in the Lord Always. Again I will say, rejoice!” Philippians 4:4

Remember this song. If your happy and you know it, clap your Hands! If your happy and you know it stomp your feet! If your happy and you know it nod your head! If your happy and you know it do all three! If you are happy and you know it and you really want to show it clap, stomp, and nod your head! According to Wikipedia, in the early 2000’s the song received widespread media attention was paid to a 12 year-old whose download included if your happy and you know it.

This little song reminds me of how I should be getting my happiness on. When I think of this is a day the Lord has made, and how he woke me up this morning to see a day I have never seen. He gave me a portion of health and strength to get up. And in my ignorance and foolishness he kept me safe, watching over me like a good father would. He heard my cry from within the closet of my heart and in the midnight hour he reached down wiping the tears from my eyes. When I think of all the things he’s done in my life I can’t help but clap my hands, stomp my feet, and nod my head. This gives me joy and happiness!

“The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me to lie down in green pastures; he leads me beside the still waters. He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; My cup runs over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me All the days of my life; And I will dwell in the house of the Lord Forever.” Psalm 23 NKJV

I’m doing my happy dance!

Remember we are each others keeper and the only time we should be looking down on someone is when we are helping them up.
