how to be happy

Happiness comes from having a humble attitude. If you feel your need of God and trust in him, you have the kingdom of God within you.

Happiness comes from grieving when you sin. Confess your sins and you will be forgiven and peace will spring up in your soul.

Happiness comes from being submissive. When you acknowledge God as the source of life and abilities, you will feel heaven's joy!

Happiness comes from being copassionate and forgiving. People will remmeber your loving kindness and return the same to you.

Happiness comes to those with pure hearts and motives. Such people will one day have the privilege of seeing God and talking to him face to face.

Happiness comes from being a peacemaker, for such are God's children.

Happiness even comes from being treated badly for doing what's right. Just remember that no matter what happens, your place in heaven is secure.

Strangely enough, you'll find yourself blessed even when people insult you, persecute you, and lie about you because you have accepted me. When this happnes, be glad, because it shows that your name is written in heaven and that your reward will be waiting for you there.
