Happiness is Having Hope in the future, Having Faith in God..

this morn was reading the Happiness book..
it says Happiness is...
Having Hope in the future, Having Faith in God..

For I know the thoughts that I think toward you,says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you.

Jer 29:11-12 NKJV

den it goes on to say

If you trust God and have faith in the future, your optimistic beliefs will give you direction and motivation.That's one reason that you should never lost hope,but certainly not the only reason.The primary reason that you, as a believer, should never lose hope, is because of God's unfailing promises.

Make no mistake about it: thoughts are powerful things--your thought have the power to lift you up or to hold you down. When you acquire the habit of hopeful thinking, you will have acquired a powerful tool for improving your life. So if you find yourself falling into the spiritual traps of worry and discouragement, be sure to redirect your thoughts. And if you fall into the terrible habit of negative thinking, think again. After all, God's Word teaches us that Christ can overcome every difficulty. And when God makes a promise, He keeps it.
