Being happy can be a challenge some days, can’t it? You have days when your friends aren’t nice. Then there are days when you hate how you look or just feel plain gross, and sometimes it’s really hard to be happy.
The hopes of the godly result in happiness, but the expectations of the wicked come to nothing. – Proverbs 10:28 (NLT)
Today’s Bible verse is a good reminder to us that the hopes of the godly result in happiness. If we’re Christians and have accepted Jesus into our hearts, then we are godly. So this verse applies to us. We can expect to have happy results.
Not because our lives or perfect, or that we don’t have bad days or trials. Rather, we can be happy because our hope is in Jesus. We don’t base our happiness on our circumstances or on what’s going on around us. Instead, we can be happy and content because we have a hope that isn’t temporary. Our hope is eternal.
We can have lasting happiness because our hope is in Jesus!
