Happiness

Yay for new blogs! This is my first time ever to use blogger!

Lately, I have been in a state of pure happiness. I feel happy allll the time. My friend tried to tell me that it is not possible to feel happy all the time. He said that there always has to be a situation to make you happy....Well, I think he is wrong.

Have you ever loved or liked someone or something so much that you are just happy and bubbly all the time? When you wake up in the moring and life is just better because they are in it? This is how I feel. I am so madly in love with Jesus Christ that I just can't help but to be purely happy all the time.

Don't get me wrong, there are times when I am brought down and mad or sad. But it's Christ that gets me through every situation. And I think that something good comes from everything. Christ wants us to rejoice in Him and glorify Him with our happiness. He created happiness!

I think that happiness is a sign of affection. When you love someone, you show it by being affectionate towards them. Well, Jesus is not here in a physical form, so I think happiness is one way of showing affection toward Him.

Weather it be being happy all the time, or clapping or raising your hands during worship, or by just being silent and meditaing in the word, it doesn't matter. What you are doing on the outside is not what impresses God. It is what goes on in your heart. But like I said, if you are truely in love with someone and you are glorifying God in your heart, it will show.

Anyways.... I am so excited to be home for a whole week! It's Thanksgiving break and I am in desperate need of a break from school. It is so nice to be back spending time with my family and friends. Last night Ashley, Tommy and I went on a little adventure and found a possum (or opossum). I just have so much fun being around them, and they have the joy of Christ in thier hearts too, which makes spending time with them so much fun. I have been blessed with amazing friends. I am so excited to spend a whole week here in Norman hanging out with them! :)
