Your Reason To Smile

We live in a world that seemingly floats in space. Each day we look at people with different color skin, different textures of hair, different tolerance for heat and cold, yet we were all made by the same God. We do not understand how all these things happened, yet we thank God because He gave us hands. We thank God because He gave us feet. We thank Him because He gave us ears and eyes and a mouth. Then for some reason we go to sleep every night and we wake up the very next day. I'm not sure if we have considered just how amazing our lives are, and they become even more amazing when we have children. Most of us only live for less than 100 years — by Biblical accounts, others have lived for centuries. Our God is amazing. Our God is the reason we can wake up every day and have a smile on our faces, because He's so awesome. He does what He does for us for one reason: because He loves us. Let today be the last day that you tell anyone, or think to yourself, that you don't have a reason to smile. Amen.

Isaiah 43:4-5 — "Because you are precious in my eyes, and honored, and I love you, I give men in return for you, peoples in exchange for your life. Fear not, for I am with you; I will bring your offspring from the east, and from the west I will gather you."
