I remember singing this little song when I was young: “If you’re happy and you know it, then your face will surely show.it If you’re happy and you know it, clap your hands……..”
A little girl came bouncing down the stairs one morning, lighthearted as only a child can be. She rushed to the kitchen and looked at her mother who was wearing a grim expression.
“Mommy, asked the little girl, “aren’t you happy?”
“Of course, I’m happy,” answered her Mom.
“Well,” the little girl replied, “You certainly haven’t told your face yet!”
It may not be easy, but our lives and FACES should show the presence of God living in us each day. Only then can others see what we have and desire to be a part of God’s family.
“……in addition to our own encouragement, we were especially delighted to
SEE how happy Titus was because his spirit has been refreshed by al of you.” 2 Corinthians 7:13.
Our Christian faith must be seen. “When He SAW their faith…..” Matt 9:2. Maybe it is just a smile, but God can use it to minister to others. Give someone a smile today.
Have a blessed day!
In Christian love,
