I am thankful for the ability to smile. The art of smiling goes beyond the physical act. A smile
starts in the heart. It grows and grows; until the moment's joy fills over and can't be contained by the heart any longer.
I don't think people smile enough; Many people claim there is nothing to smile about.
Smile is a verb...It's a choice...
Granted, there are times when we don't feel like smiling or it's inappropriate to smile and that's OK. God gave us emotions for a reason. HE knew we would have times of grief and sorrow.
But, joy comes in the morning!!!
Proverbs 15:13 {NIV} says "A happy heart makes a face cheerful, but heartache crushes the spirit."
Grief and sadness take a toll on the body, mind, and soul
Just as...
Happiness causes the body, mind, and soul to heal and to be at peace.
We learn in Ecclesiastes 6:1-a (NIV) that there is a time for EVERYTHING!
For everything, there is a season, a time for everything under the sun
A time to be born & to die
A time to plant & a time to harvest
A time to kill & a time to heal
A time to tear down & a time to build up
*A time to laugh & a time to cry*
Will you choose to smile today?
