I think that most of us tend to believe that being happy means that we are free from problems and worry. We think... if only I could get rid of this problem or that problem, I would be happy for once!
The truth is that we will always have struggles. Our attitude that we take when we try and cope with our problems is what can actually make us happy. We can choose to have joy in all circumstances. We can choose to be happy and also choose to have a positive and rational attitude when facing adversity.
We can do the best that we can- with where we are- with what we have.......... and then let go of what we have no control over!
Romans 5:3-5 We can rejoice, too, when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they help us develop endurance. And endurance develops strength of character, and character strengthens our confident hope of salvation. And this hope will not lead to disappointment. For we know how dearly God loves us, because he has given us the Holy Spirit to fill our hearts with his love.
