Happiness.........

From many days I've been longing to write a post on happiness....Unexpectedly today I've seen a beautiful quote in a blog and suddenly reminded me my mother's words since she often use this quote...

The Happiest people don't have the best of everything; they just make the best of
everything...

I strongly believe in this.It's really true since in our lives we have had and we'll have many bad experiences to which we need to adjust and during that time, even though we are not happy and comfortable with whatever we are with, I think we should be glad and mold all situations such that we will be happy.Now I've something coming into my mind one verse from The Bible Matthew 11:28- Jesus says:"Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest"[KJV]. This is a beautiful medicine for our disease of sin, unhappiness, whatever we are suffering with.

I want to share some experiences. Recently when my brother appeared for a few exams, I prayed to GOD, LORD if it is your will give him a seat in a particular institute. I'm not boasting about myself but whatever we pray, I think whatever is GOD's will it'll happen in our lives. Since GOD is a loving father, he never wants his children to be sad.So, whenever we face trouble I think he'll give us some situations where we may perhaps don't take them seriously and be in the same state of sadness. If we utilise them we can come out of our distress. So, even though my brother didn't get a good rank in one particular exam which I've longed for, I thought it may be GOD's will which needs to be fulfilled in his life. So, I thanked GOD for everything since some people might not have got such a rank. And till now I didn't regret. We don't know what are the wonderful plans for each and everyone's lives GOD has.His ways are higher than our ways and his thoughts are much higher than our thoughts.

In the past sometimes when something gone wrong, I used to feel very sad and used to think much about that.Then most of the times I go to GOD. If I tell to my mother that momma I'm feeling sad, she used to remind me the quote which was above that everything is in our hands...we can make our own happiness and we only should make best of that situation by learning many things and not feeling depressed.If we lean 100% on GOD, then we are the happiest people in this world.

Ok, now sing this beautiful song which gives the definition of happiness and how we can get that.........

Happiness is to know the saviour,
Living a life within his favour
Having a change in my behaviour
Happiness is the Lord

Happiness is a new creation
"Jesus and me" in close relation
Having a part in His salvation
Happiness is the Lord
Real joy is mine, no matter if tear drops start
I've found the secret it's Jesus in my heart!

Happiness is to be forgiven
Living a life that's worth the living
Taking a trip that leads to Heaven
Happiness is the Lord
Happiness is the Lord
Happiness is the Lord!
