I think many people see Christianity as a stern, severe and joyless lifestyle, because a lot of people who call themselves Christians have sour attitudes and sad faces. They can be critical of others and quick to judge, which is not consistent with God’s love (see 1 Corinthians 13:7). Those of us who love and serve God should be the happiest people on Earth. We should be able to enjoy everything we do, because we know He’s here with us, no matter what. God sent Jesus because He wanted us to enjoy life—our joy makes Him happy!

Happiness is an emotion that fosters well-being, and it is contagious. One of the best and simplest ways to show Jesus to others is to smile and enjoy your life. Since everyone wants to be happy, if they see truly happy Christians, they’ll be open to learning about and receiving Jesus for themselves.

Prayer Starter: Lord, please help me keep my focus on positive things so I can begin to enjoy every moment of my life. Thank You for opening doors for me to show You to those around me. In Jesus’s Name, amen.
