Choose To Be Happy!

You will be exactly as happy as you decide to be. Don't give your mind permission to get disturbed. A disturbed mind is easily influenced. This will cost you your peace and joy and if the devil succeeds in touching your joy, he's got you. Learn to maintain your peace by freeing yourself from attachments. The heaviest thing you can carry is a grudge; let go and don't keep hurting yourself. 

Don't carry your mistakes around with you like labels; instead, place them under your feet and use them as stepping stones. Forget what hurt you in the past but never forget what it taught you. Things will be thrown at you daily but what matters is how you respond to them. We alter our lives by altering our attitudes. The more you praise and celebrate your life, the more there is in life to celebrate. 

Happiness is not the absence of challenges but the divine peace within that knows that All things work together for our good. Not just good things...ALL things.No matter what is happening around you, choose to be happy. Don't focus on what is wrong except you 're solving it. Acknowledge every good thing in you and build on it. 

Refuse to put your trust in men, they will fail you; for disappointments from men are just God's way of saying to you- I've got something better. Don't feel bad if someone rejects or snubs you; people usually reject expensive things because they can't afford them. If you tell God about a need, He will tell you to sow a seed. Be a beacon of light in someone's darkness.

 Thank God for the small things; He will always bring the right people into your life, but you have to let the wrong people walk away. You cannot hang out with negative people and expect to live a positive life.
