The Quote:
“Happiness cannot be traveled to, owned, earned, worn or consumed. Happiness is the spiritual experience of living every minute with love, grace, and gratitude.”
Denis Waitley
Wisdom from Scripture:
Philippians 1: 3-8
“I thank my God every time I remember you. 4 In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy 5 because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now, 6 being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.
7 It is right for me to feel this way about all of you, since I have you in my heart and, whether I am in chains or defending and confirming the gospel, all of you share in God’s grace with me. 8 God can testify how I long for all of you with the affection of Christ Jesus.”
John 7: 37-38
37 On the last and greatest day of the festival, Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, “Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink. 38 Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them.”
Prayer:
Holy God, come and fill our hearts with your spirit. Come and fill them until they overflow with blessings only you can give. Let your love conquer our selfishness; let your holiness penetrate our humanness; let your healing power awaken those who are sick and tired. And in all that life throws at us, let us joyfully celebrate what you have already given us. Amen.
