Happiness is:

Inspired by a friend of mine and too good not to join in. Won't you add your comments or repost this on your own blog and join in?

Happiness is:
  • Waking up each morning to a hot cup of coffee and time with my Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ.
  • Being sore and achy from a job well done.
  • Witnessing my children stand up for what they have been taught.
  • Sharing the wonder of the world around me with the children God has blessed us with.
  • Knowing each night when I go to bed, that everything rests in God's capable hands.
  • Hearing the rooster crow in the morning.
  • The immenseness of the starry sky... and knowing that each star not only has a name, but is know by name... by God.
  • The steady drizzle of a soaking rain.
  • The promise that God will use all things for good (Rom 8:28) even when there doesn't seem to be any possible way.
  • Kissing my husband each morning when he leaves... and again when he comes home.
  • Curling up one the bed each night and reading with my children.
  • Knowing that someday this old world will pass away and I'll get to meet Jesus Christ face to face.
  • Having my eyes opened to an amazing truth in God's word.
  • Warm enough weather to wear flip flops.
  • Pink toenail polish that is shared with my daughter.
  • The first robin each spring.
  • The wafting scent of lilacs.
  • The colors of a sunset.
  • Laughing with good friends until your face aches and your heart overflows!
  • A sermon that God uses to break your heart.
  • Knowing someone is praying for you.
  • Seeing your prayers for someone else answered.
  • My children saying please and thank you without being reminded.
  • SALVATION!!! (This is where joy begins!)
  • Whole body hugs from my 11 month old.
  • Making a joyful noise.
  • Knowing God has a purpose for you and job to be done.
  • Waking up each morning know that God's mercies are new and going to bed each night knowing that you are saved and going to heaven!
  • Leading someone to the Lord... and on that note...
