Happiness

So do not worry about tomorrow, because the next day will take care of itself. Each day has enough trouble of its. Matthew 6:34

King George V wrote on the cover page of a friend's Bible : "The secret of happiness is not doing what you love to do, but learning to love what you have to do." Too many people think that happiness What is discovered by a constant and relentless search. He is not found while searching. This is not an end in itself. There are never any pots of gold at the end of the rainbow, as we thought when we were children ; gold is extracted from the ground or laboriously beaten from a mountain stream.

Jesus once said to his disciples : "Seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you." The "things" of which He spoke were the things that make us happy and safe - food, drink, clothing, shelter, he told us not to make it the main purpose of our lives, but to "seek the kingdom" and these needs would be automatically provided, and if we take it, it's the secret happiness.

Prayer for the day

Forgive me, Father, for those times when I am anxious. You promised to take care of all my needs.

Billy Graham
