GIVING AWAY HAPPINESS
A U. S. News & World Report cover story explored the subject of happiness. According to the article, scientists have found that “strong marriages, family ties, and friendships predict happiness, as do spirituality and self-esteem. Hope is crucial, as is the feeling that life has meaning.” But what if some of these elements are missing in our lives? Researchers say that “helping people be a little happier can jump-start a process that will lead to stronger relationships, renewed hope, and general upward spiraling of happiness.”
What we give, more than what we get, produces joy in our lives. The Bible says, “There is one who scatters, yet increases more…The generous soul will be made rich, and he who waters will also be watered himself” (Prov. 11:24-25).
Thank you for being generous in your serving and giving to God. The apostle Paul stated, “We are coworkers belonging to God. You are God’s field, God’s building. According to the grace of God given to me, like a skilled master-builder I laid a foundation, but someone else builds on it. And each one must be careful how he builds. For no one can lay any foundation other than what is being laid, which is Jesus Christ.” 1 Corinthians 3:9-11
Grateful to God for you all, Pastor Larry
