just want to share this inspiration from the Daily Bread which i am quoting in full, for all of you. Please read on spies and have a blessed day today.
When Tamer Lee Owens celebrated her 104th birthday, she credited "laughter, the Lord, and the little things" for keeping her going. She still finds enjoyment each day in talking with people, taking a walk, and reading the Bible as she has done since childhood. "I don’t know how long He’ll let me stay here," she said. "I just thank the Lord for what He’s given me already."
Most of us won’t live 104 years, but we can learn from Tamer Lee how to enjoy each day that we are given.
Laughterâ€â€ÂÂ"A merry heart makes a cheerful countenance, but by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken" (Prov. 15:13). True happiness begins deep inside and emerges on our faces.
The Lordâ€â€ÂÂ"The fear of the Lord is the instruction of wisdom, and before honor is humility" (v.33). When God is central in our hearts, He can teach us His way through every experience of life.
The Little Thingsâ€â€ÂÂ"Better is a dinner of herbs where love is, than a fatted calf with hatred" (v.17). Maintaining loving relationships and enjoying the basic things of life are more important than wealth and success.
Not all of us will live a long time, but we can all live well each dayâ€â€ÂÂwith laughter, the Lord, and the little things in life.
Happiness is not a destination but a day-by-day journey.
God bless all.
READ: Proverbs 15:13-33
All the days of the afflicted are evil, but he who is of a merry heart has a continual feast. â€â€ÂÂProverbs 15:15
