Don’t you just love this verse in the Amplified?

HAPPY.
BLESSED.
FORTUNATE.
PROSPEROUS.
TO BE ENVIED.

I’m convinced some people are “blessed” with a happy gene. Others seem to have a hard time seeing why they should be happy at all!

But Happy is a place we can all live. It starts with knowing we belong to God and His love will never fails us. Here’s the ABC’s of how I find my “Happy” place.

Friends, I’d love to hear what some of your ABC’s to happiness are! Please share and spread the Happy.
Surprising Treasure:
Proverbs 16:20 20 He who deals wisely and heeds [God’s] word and counsel shall find good, and whoever leans on, trustsin, and is confident in the Lord—happy, blessed, and fortunate is he.
So creative to find happiness using the alphabet.
Beautiful!
Thanks so much for stopping by and sharing the love, Lux. #Happy, blessed weekend.
I’m off to read your blog now.
Oh, I like the alphabet idea. Now I must go compose my own.
Thank you, dear friend!
Tell me your favorites. The only one I had tinsey winsey trouble with was finding my X word.
I like your ABCs so well, I didn’t go back to read a second time until after I made my own list, so I would have to think for myself.
For my X I did “Exalt the Name of the Lord.” But, I do like your clever “Xerox!”
Awesome! I admit- I felt like I had to use a true X word that started with the letter X – not just the sound- so I looked up X words in the Dictionary! Walah! Xerox.
