It will not always be ’bad.’ It will not always be ’good.’ Usually it’s a combination of both. We are taught that in this life we should reach for everything and be supremely happy. That’s not how it’s supposed to be. We don’t have to have ‘everything’ in order to be happy. As a matter of fact, you could be going through the roughest time in your life and still be happy. I’ll tell you why. That ‘happiness comes from within’ quote is true. Actually, true happiness comes from knowing God. Having faith the size of a ‘mustard seed’ was not so much about the size of your faith and how big it has to be. Faith of a mustard seed is a genuine belief that you have a God who loves you and wants to bring you through. Therefore, no matter what the circumstances are—you should take heart if you know and believe God is working for you. When you seek after, follow, and try to learn his ways, he will especially help you. It’s your choice. We have free will. God will not force you to worship. God will try to bring you to his heart. The everlasting, all kind, eternal, unconditionally loving, God. Our Holy Father in heaven wants to bring you to himself. It’s simple. All you have to do is call out to him. Do it once. It gets easier. Make it a practice. And watch your life begin to transform in ways you never imagined!

I’ll praise Him in the storm⛈. I’ll praise Him in a loss. I’ll praise him when I’m down and when I don’t know what’s going on. I’ll praise him when I have no strength to praise; I’ll praise Him in my heart. I’ll praise him when he takes. I’ll praise him when there seems to be no way out. Did I say I’ll praise him when I don’t know what is going on? I’ll praise him all the days of my life no matter what, because, it’s simple. He’s the king of kings. He’s the God of all glory! The ruler of the universe(s). The maker of the heavens! He sits on the throne. From everlasting to everlasting, I will praise Him all the days of my life, whether here or elsewhere. His love has a way of making things right, he mends broken hearts, he brings peace and solutions, and he heals me every time. When you have confidence in God, you don’t have too much to worry about.☀️🪐🌍💫✨⚛️⚡️🌠
