1 Timothy 1:15 "This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief."
Unhappiness lies in that gap between what you have now and what you think you need. Yet the truth is, you don’t need to acquire anything more to be content with what we already have. You don’t need anyone else’s permission to be happy. Your life is special not because someone says it is, or because you have acquired something new, but because you choose to see it as such thru the eyes of Jesus. Don’t let your happiness be held hostage by the blindness of others. It is always yours to choose, to live, and to experience as a son or daughter of the King.
As soon as you stop making everyone and everything else responsible for your happiness, the happier you’ll be. If you’re unhappy now, it’s not someone else’s fault. Take full responsibility for your own unhappiness, and you will instantly gain the ability to be happier. Stop seeking in vain to arrange conditions that will make you happy. Simply choose to appreciate the greatness of God in Christ Jesus that is yours in this moment, and the right conditions will start to line up around the contentment you seek.
The greater part of your happiness or unhappiness depends upon your outlook, and not upon our situation. Even if things aren’t perfect right now, think of all the beauty still left around you. A good reason to smile is always one thought away. Choose to tap into it any time you like. You may be the chief of sinners, but their is happiness in Christ Jesus for all who believe. You just have to accept Him as the Lord of your life.
