I am immensely happy and love my life. God has healed my body and given me a purpose that feeds my spirit and provides a comfortable lifestyle. He’s given me gifts and talents which fill my days and loving friends and family who walk beside.

When I wake and greet the day my heart is full and joy is present. My home is peaceful and He’s helped me understand the nuances of my makeup that contribute to this state. I was determined to build a lifestyle which enables me to immerse myself in Him and the interests He’s bestowed.

And now that I have, it’s like being in a state of flow or the zone all the time. Everything I do points back to Him in some way and I’m amazed at what He’s done. The setbacks and disappointments were setups for something more.

I feel free to soar and pursue all the things He’s laid on my heart. I’m thankful for the lessons, guidance, and support I’ve been given throughout. And I’m not ashamed to admit what He’s done and how far He’s brought me. I never imagined I’d stand where I am.

So....this is a simple and pretty straightforward question.


Are you happy with your life?


And if not, what would make you happy....if anything? Or what do you think is keeping you from being happy? I know some single people might say getting a boyfriend or girlfriend would make them happier. But other than the lack of romance in your life....what else would make you happier? More friends? A better job? Certain problems or obstacles in your life finally going away or being resolved? Please be specific if you don't mind. But if it's too personal or private, or you just don't feel like sharing, then that's fine too. :)
Nope..

Becoming perfect and being with Jesus in eternity would make me happy..

Being imperfect and living in an imperfect world is keeping me from being happy..

some versions of the bible translate being blessed as 'happy' so

lets see what Jesus says in ....Matthew 5: 10-11 Happy are those who are persecuted for the sake of righteousness...Happy are you when you insulted and persecuted and people tell all kinds of lies against you because you are my followers


...hmm that sounds like me! so I AM happy! How about you?

Right now...

In my flesh - no;

In my spirit - yes... Because He lives inside of me. : )
