Eternal God Said Live With Joy

Try these tips from Scripture to add more joy to your life. Give three compliments every day “Like golden apples in silver settings are words spoken at the proper time” (Proverbs 25:11). Look for the silver lining in every dark cloud. “Even though you meant harm to me, Eternal God meant it for good, to achieve his present end, the survival of many people” (Genesis 50:20) Make the best of any situation. “We know all things work for good for those who love God Who are called according to his purpose” (Romans 8:28). Tip generously, give freely to beggars. “He who confers benefits will be amply enriched, and he who refreshes others will himself be refreshed” (Proverbs 11:25). Say, “thank you,” often. “In all circumstances give thanks, for this is the will of God for you in [Father] Christ Jesus” (1 Thessalonians 5:18). Sing in the shower. “But I shall sing of your strength, extol your love at dawn, for you are my fortress, my refuge in time of trouble’ (Psalm 59:17).
