Topic: Smile!
Text: Proverbs 15:30

A cheerful look brings joy to the heart, and good news gives health to the bones. Amen

Smiling may seem like an involuntary response to something cute or funny, but it is much more than that. Studies suggest that smiling, forced or not, can have a positive effect on your mood, decrease stress levels, and even make everyone around you feel better. It is contagious and very likely to make you more attractive and approachable.

Even when things are not going so well as you expected, still smile your way through it all. Actually, you are to “Count it all joy, when you meet trials of various kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.” (James 1:2-3)

So no matter what, come what may, wear a great smile and tell your soul “ALL IS WELL”, “JESUS IS MORE THAN ABLE AND HE IS IN CONTROL.”

Begin to pray. Part ways with all the sadness, doubts, fears, anxieties and worry that always steal your joy and the blessing that should come with it. Ask for the grace to see beyond every situation, to know exactly what God is saying about them. That way, you can rest in His assurance that all is well, and smile.

As for the LORD, He remains your light and salvation — who will you fear? If He is the stronghold of your life, of whom shall you be afraid? (Ps 27: 1). SIMPLY SMILE YOUR WAY THROUGH THE DAY TRUSTING NOT IN YOUR ABILITIES, BUT IN THE GOD WHO CAN ALL THINGS DO.

Remember, a cheerful look brings joy to the heart. Don’t wait for another to infest you with either their joy or negativity. Brighten your corner with your smile everyday and watch God turn all things around for your good.
