The Choice to be Happy

 We all have this idea that other things will make us happy. Money, relationships, kids, the list goes on. But the truth is, other things cannot make us happy, with out us making the choice to be happy.

 We have the choice every day when we wake up if we're going to have a good day, or a bad day. If we are going to be happy, we have to consciously decide that we will not let things get to us. We will not let the little things steal our joy. Each day is a gift, we should not take anything for granted. We should be thankful even for the bad days, because by the grace of God there is a new day coming, where we will have the opportunity to choose joy.

 I need to be better about making the choice to be happy every day, because tomorrow is not a guarantee. I want my life to be joyful. So with God's help I am making the choice today and every day to try and be happy in every situation.
