I took this photo when we had an out-reach program in Jakarta, Indonesia. |
A happy heart
is a grateful heart...
It appreciates
trivial and vast things
It is beholden
to every minuscule blessing
It is pleased to
every person given along the way
It is satisfied
to the very life bestowed each day.
A happy heart
is a forgiving heart…
It does not keep
ill feelings
It does not
harbor negativities toward others
It vindicates
the most painful wound inflicted.
A happy heart
is a humble heart…
It does not
boast of victories
It yields to the
power of change
It admits
vulnerabilities to human frailties.
A happy heart
is a contented heart…
It is not
jealous of others feats
It is not
envious of what others have
It is not
resentful when others are praised.
A happy heart
is an open heart…
It accepts life
as it is
It creates room
for improvement
It acquiesces to
life’s everyday surprises.
A happy heart
is a prayerful heart…
It puts God as
the center of everything
It trusts God
that there are reasons for every situation
It has a strong
conviction that God’s words are the ultimate truth.
A happy heart
is a pure heart…
It wakes up with
a purpose
It sleeps with
faith
It lives in bliss contented with the knowledge that God knows
best.
