Seems like the world is just unhappy! 

Even last night and today in my town Minneapolis there is more rioting and looting due to people being unhappy… oh I get it, we use the excuse of racism, BLM, protesting, radical change etc… but the truth is people are unhappy. 

 

The US constitution does not guarantee happiness only the pursuit of it. You have to catch up with it  yourself. 

Benjamin Franklin

 

Reduce the complexity of life by eliminating the needles wants of life, and the labors of life reduce themselves. Edwin Way Tale

 

Happiness… I might bet you that your happiest moments are not tied to things or accomplishments… but rather times with people. 

 

What do you think about happiness?

What determines happiness?

How much do outside circumstances play a part in your happiness? Job, weather, education, opportunities? 

What control do you have over your own happiness?

What role does your faith have in your happiness?

 

2 Tim. 1:7 God has not given us the spirit of fear, but of power, love and a sound mind. 

 

I think happiness is overrated, but I believe that confidence is the key. Happiness depends on what happens… Confidence comes from your walk with God. 

 

I would rather be confident than happy. 

But lets stick to the point here, we are in fact talking about happiness. 

You know we are fed myths in todays world that you cannot be happy if you are a minority, you are poor, you are old, you are disabled, unemployed… LIES! 

 

What can make you happy can also make you miserable.

Money - can be a great thing

Job - “ “

Marriage - “ “

Education - “ “ 

Toys - “ “ 

Family and Friends - “ “ 

 

But if you are unhappy and lack a Godfidence to steal a Todd White term, then these only make you more miserable. 

 

The truth is that Study after study proves that life satisfaction and happiness has nothing to do with money or your countries level of purchasing power (i.e. is your country rich or poor) 

 

Now here is what is interesting.

Your happiness can increase if you are married, if you have a healthy social life/friends, if you have money to pay bills, But The overall factor in making these help your happiness to actually putting your happiness on steroids and you having fulfillment and confidence 

READY?

it’s having these built on Biblical principles.

Money? Tithe, spend wisely

Marriage? One wife, faithful, no porn

Friendships? Based on your faith 

Talents? used for God

Education? balance on Gods word

Health? healthier just being a follower of Christ

 

Now the simplistic truth is almost as easy as “pessimist” vs. “optimist” mindset.

You know the old saying… is the glass half empty or half full. If you see it as half empty you are a pessimist, 

if you see it as half full you are an optimist.

But here is a biblical mindset…

Hey who might need some water?

Hey if its poisoned God said it won’t harm me”

Hey maybe I should water my neighbors plant on the porch and serve her.

Maybe I could sell this little bit of water and give the money to missions. 

Ok, these are maybe silly and extreme examples… but this is a biblical Christian mindset and it builds a life of confidence and happiness.
