Peace and Happiness

I once read in a book, that happiness is 20% circumstance, and 80% attitude. Stress is a normal part of our lives, but in many ways it takes over all of our mind. It’s hard not be stressed right now. Whether it be our health, our families health, finances, our job situations, or our personal relationships, there is always something to be worried about. We have a lot of things to worry about, but we have one thing that can help us through it all.

And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:7

Jesus is our hope. I don’t know what the future holds but Jesus does. I don’t have all the answers, but Jesus does. I know whatever assails us today, Jesus will give us the strength to get through it. I can breathe and smile in knowing whatever trials we are facing today, we don’t have to go it alone. Brothers and sisters, remember what a great God we have. Nothing touches us without first touching our best Friend. He knows what we are going through, and He promises never to leave us. I pray that each one of us leans on Jesus. Let a smile break through the worry of this world. We are almost home, let’s keep on marching with a joy in our hearts.
