God is joyful. God is bountiful. God is God wants us to experience the joy, bounty, and beauty that is within us. God knows it is there because we are God’s creation and thus an extension of God. We tend to look outside ourselves for happiness and sometimes we find it. But it is not the kind of lasting happiness that God can provide. The power of God’s kind of happy is the eternal. The simplicity of God’s kind of happiness seems to elude us because it can only be experienced in the moment. The moment is when we the eternal meets the now. The more time we spend with our minds in the past or the future, the more it eludes us. Knowing that we are completely taken care of and looked upon by our creator allows us to breathe a little easier and enjoy where we are in the moment. I have spent a lot of my life looking for someone, something, or some situation to make me happy. It wasn’t until I started dating God that I found that those kinds of happiness were fleeting and my eternal source was so close to me I couldn’t see it until I slowed down to look into my heart. My prayer for us today is the courage to slow down and be present in the moment so we may experience a happiness that transcends any circumstance. Make it a great one! Peace~Colleen
