How do you enjoy life?
This question is a rather easy one to answer; by making a conscious decision to enjoy it.
See, all too often we get caught up in the challenges of our daily lives. So caught up in fact, that we neglect to notice all of the good things going on everyday. If we simply decide to be more happy, and to have fun in what we're doing, then we will be much happier and much less distracted by the negativity in the world.
"Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you." - 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18.
I have to ask, do you think it will benefit you to worry? I have been guilty of worry and dread in the past, and I believe we all have been, but we should do our best to maintain a positive attitude in times of adversity. This thought was recently reinforced in my mind; Christ died for us, and therefore we truly have nothing to worry about. Like the awesome verse says - "If God is for us, who can be against us." Romans 8:1.
It goes without saying, but there are so many wonderful things we have to be thankful for, salvation being one of them. So I believe that to live a fulfilling life with smiles and laughter we need to make the choice to ignore what's wrong with the world, and to recognize and embrace all the blessings that we are given everyday.
I thought I'd keep it brief today, but you get the point. The good in life is a lot like the stars in the sky; the more you look, the more you find. Please keep this in mind.
God Bless!
