Today's Scripture

"May the righteous be glad and rejoice before God; may they be happy and joyful" Psalm 68:3 (NIV).

Today's Word from Joel and Victoria

You should live by a simple life motto: "I'm a Christian, so I choose to be happy!" That's right, as a believer you are blessed by Christ, who watches over you every single moment. Happiness and joy are a choice - one that should be easy for a Christian to make. If choosing happiness is hard for you, try this starting tomorrow morning with an attitude of gratitude. Give thanks to God as soon as you get out of bed, before you even leave your bedroom, because God's praise should always be on your lips. Everything else in life is just stuff, but your happiness is based on the fact that God has given you life and spiritual blessings. Be glad before the Lord and choose to be happy each day, and it will become a wonderful habit!
