The
very first Psalm in the Bible (Psalm 1:1) begins by saying, "Happy is
the man," and then it goes on to talk about the things that a happy man
shouldn't do, and some things that he should. God is teaching us how to
“feed our happy.” So I have to ask, does God want us to be happy?
Sometimes the world and even some Christians think that it is better for
Christians to be miserable. But if God is giving us instructions on how
to be happy, He must want us to be happy. The world will tell you that
happy comes from what you have. “Well, if only I had the perfect house,”
or “a bigger pay check," or “the perfect spouse,” but God's way is
different. Here in Psalm 1, He is explaining that we “feed our happy” by
what we do, not by what we have. I believe God wants you to have nice
stuff, you’re a child of the King and a joint heir with Christ, but your
happiness doesn’t hinge on what you have, but instead, on what you do.
"Happy is the man who delights in the word of God." Yeah, happy is THAT
guy. So get out your smile, and then get out your Bible and “feed your
happy!” #feedyourhappy
