Weeping may endure for
a night, but joy comes in the morning. Psalm 30:5
I have done some soul searching lately and have pondered
whether my happiness depends on everything in my life being just right. Based on my present circumstances, and the
reality of everything not going my way, I’d say that my happiness sometimes
does depend on everything being ‘just right.’
If everything went my way, the children would always do what I asked them
to do on the first time, my wife and I would never have disagreements, I would close every sale that I pursued at
work, and my Auburn Tigers would be National Champions every season.
We all experience times in our lives that we feel down, but
we cannot let our circumstances control our emotions. The enemy is a discourager and will stop at
nothing to fill our minds with negative thoughts and emotions, but Jesus is our
encourager and is always there to lift us up.
He came to give us all love, peace, righteousness, and joy-all the
things that help lift our spirits up!
We all feel sad or down at times, but those feelings are
only temporary because joy comes from above and makes everything better!
