Be Happy.

"Today I am happy because I don't have any reason not to be."

Wouldn't it be somethin' if I woke up with that perspective every morning?

Because really, we have an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, AND unfading.

So why don't we rejoice greatly in this?

I know sometimes we are grieved and troubled.

It happens.

But pure faith put through the fire, like gold, comes out proved genuine and pure.

In the end, when it's all said and done, it's your faith, that genuine faith which is more 

precious than that perishable gold, that will be held on display as evidence of victory.

And that's a promise.

Speaking of happiness.

Wouldn't it be fantastic if we were all as happy as this guy?
