many believers do not know that it is god's will for us to enjoy the life.he has provided for us all year long .the fact is we must take a decesion to enjoy our lives and with what we have .joy is released when we makea decesion not to allow adverse circumtances to rule our thoughs,feeling and attitudes.
God is life ,and if we do not enjoy life then we really do not enjoy him.
trust him and allow him to spread happyness in ur life our god is great .

So much easier said than done, esp. when you are a mother seeing your child go through pain. I even said to God on October 4, 2007 that I was giving him my children and trusting in his will for them. It is such a hard thing not to take it back when you see bad things happening. I have to keep reminding myselft that he is in control. Even when things go wrong, he has a plan. It's hard to rejoice in pain and suffering. I am working on that.

i understand some time it si easy to say but when u have deep faith in ur heart u can laim that 'why god ,why its happing with me if u have promised to give us happiness then make our spirit joy full and give us strngth to go through the problems and hurdle.
what i do in my difficult time i do not give much responce to my emotion rather i claim on gods words .
he is responsible for us .he is our care taker i alone can not bear the burden

This is a very inspiring message my dear meetas, it touched me and it certainly will help me to live a joyful life this year-I agree that adverse circumstances, negative feelings and attitudes take away all our joy, I pray God helps me to keep my joy intact this year as I lay all my burdens to Him! Thanks alot for this spiritual post!

God is certainly great in that no matter what the circumstances in life, we know that in the end there awaits a mansion reserved in heaven for us and that Heaven is much more beautiful than imagined and we will see HIM face to face. This joy makes what we endure through life as insignificant. We do not need to go around with mournful face because we have this hope in us that God will protect us from all evil.

You are right, God wants us to be happy and have joy. I wonder sometimes at people who continually look upon God as vengence. God is the Father and all fathers want their children happy.
