My Morning Meditation...HAPPINESS

Success is not the key to happiness. 
Happiness is the key to success. 


Psalm 144:15

Yes, joyful are those who live like this!
      Joyful indeed are those whose God is the Lord.



Star's Interpretation (with some help from my prayer partner):  If you're happy with what you are doing, you will be successful.  The person who is born with a talent which is suppose to be used finds their greatest happiness in using it.  But remember, Happiness does not come wrapped in brightly colored packages as a “gift” given to us by others. Happiness comes when we uncover the gifts that lie within us and begin to use them to please God and bless others. Happiness flows from within. It rises up in life’s greatest tragedies when we choose to smile at what we know to be good and lasting, rather than to cry at what temporarily hurts us. Be the person who causes happiness WHEREVER you go; rather than someone who causes happiness WHENEVER you go!  Being happy doesn't mean that everything is perfect. It means that you've decided to look beyond the imperfections. 


Happiness is a choice.

  1. So true! I do believe if you are happy with what you are doing you will be successful and happiness is a choice. But some days it is hard to make that choice and some days, I'm not sure what to do. Lately I've been stuck. Ever have one of those days, weeks, months?
