Have you ever seen a bunch of little kids. The one thing they do... is laugh... and talk and have fun. Jesus said "suffer little children to come unto me... for of such is the Kingdom of God." Luke 18:16 He wants us to be simple & happy like that.

.

On the other hand... The Enemy Just Hates It When We're Happy.

.

Isaiah said, "in Quietness & Confidence Is Your Strength." Isaiah 30:15 --- It's that joy in your heart... knowing that He Is... And That He Is In Control. It's seeing all the Beauty and Wonder and Majesty of His Creation... and knowing that everything is going according to His plan.

.

That Joy Of The Lord... Is Your Strength. Nehemiah 8:10

.

Take time today to be like a little kid... to stop and smile and laugh... and Trust Him. See His Perfection... See His Magic... See That He Is In Control.

.

You know... He even suffered and died for You... so that you can be safe, secure and happy... for eternity. All he wants, is for you to appreciate what He has done.

.

There's no greater sign of appreciation than when Someone Smiles... Shows Their Joy... and Says... Thank You.

.

Except a man be Born Again and Become as a Little Child, he Cannot See the Kingdom of God.  Matthew 18:2&3,  John 3:3
