Rejoice Always ~ Day 5
A happy heart makes the face cheerful,
but heartache crushes the spirit.
Proverbs 15:13
We’re
on the home stretch ~ and I’m praying that by now you are more convinced
than ever that God’s word is practical, relevant, and
life-changing. Think of what God has done for you this week as you have
intentionally determined to rejoice always in him.
Today
I want to encourage you to keep a cheerful face all day long. At every
encounter with others, consciously remember to begin with a smile. For
some, this comes easily and naturally; for others ~ like me ~ it is a habit to
learn. Studies have proven that smiling makes a difference in
you ~ emotionally and chemically ~ and it makes a difference in the way
others respond to you.
So
remember to put a cheerful look on your face and keep it there all
day. Then notice how your smile impacts your feelings, your
relationships, and your energy level today. Pay special attention to how
contagious your smile is. People will smile back at you that you’ve
never seen smile before!
