UPLIFTING, HAPPY THOUGHTS

Psalm 16:11 NLT  You will show me the way of life, granting me the joy of your presence and the pleasures of living with you forever.

God wants to show us the way of life! Part of His way is thinking His thoughts, so I thought we’d have some happy and uplifting thoughts to start our week off right. Are you ready?😊

Philippians 4:13 NLT For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength. Now that’s a positive thought to take into our day. Whatever it is we have to do, He’s saying we can confidently call on His strength.😊

Philippians 4:5 NLT Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. If we’d just obey that ‘way of life’ we would be much lighter and happier, don’t you think?!😊

Joshua 1:9 NLT …Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”  Because He is with us, we’re surrounded by His favour, and we’re never on our own having to do life by ourselves. What a happy thought, that God, who loves us so much, is actually with us.😊

John 14:27 NLT I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart… So don’t be troubled or afraid. Jesus gave us that thought to lift us up above whatever is trying to weigh us down - peace in the predicament, peace when we’re under pressure.😊

Romans 15:13 NLT I pray that God, the source of hope, will fill you completely with joy and peace because you trust in him. Then you will overflow with confident hope through the power of the Holy Spirit. I love that - a life filled and overflowing - not with fear and anxiety but with peace and joy. Thank You Lord!😊

I’m sure you can think of loads of other verses that put a smile on your face but maybe we just need to keep reading those uplifting ‘God thoughts’ out loud to ourselves, over and over again, until their truth takes root and changes our whole perspective and way of life. 😊

Have a blessed and uplifting week in the joy of His presence. God loves you. Amen.😊x
