Okay, I have done it! I have discovered the secret to a happy life! The simple things!!!! Take pride in what you do, take joy in what you do, and do everything for God's glory! Who cares if your house is spotless all the time? No ones kids are going to be happy all the time. They are going to fight, they are going to cry, they are going to mess up. So are you!
If you want to have a good day no matter what try this.....
No matter what happens, don't yell.
No matter what happens do something for your spouse that you KNOW they will make them smile and go the extra mile on it.
No matter what happens, take some time to play with your kids, dog, whatever you have.
No matter what happens, take some time for yourself. (Take a bath while the kids are napping, or eat some cake or pie and watch your favorite movie)
No matter what happens read the Bible, even if it is only for five minutes.
No matter what happens call a friend just to catch up. Ask their day is and ask if there is anything you can pray about for them.
Go sit outside for a bit and just listen to the birds, bugs, and soak up some vitamen D, or feel the cool breeze, or smell the rain. Then say a prayer of thanks for the gifts from God that he has given to you.
Sing your favorite hymn while you do the dishes.
Try it and I pray that you have a wonderful God filled and God blessed day!
