"A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones." -Proverbs 17:22 (NIV)
Life throws many things at us and we need to be ready to respond. We need to search for hope and cheer throughout life. As Gilbert Chesterton said, "Hope is the power of being cheerful in circumstances that we know to be desperate." Whenever we seek God, we can have hope and find cheer!
God promises to always be with us. When we are committed to God, we know that even the circumstances that seem desperate can be used for good. As followers of God, we can be cheerful. We can praise Him. We can invite His presence into all parts of our lives. We can find God's cheer to be good medicine in our lives. God can lift our spirits and heal our hearts!
Seek God, find a hope that brings healing and allows for a cheerful heart!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for the hope and cheer that You provide. Help me to always have a cheerful heart that allows me to spread Your love and joy. In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
