Perfect Peace

What are 5 everyday things that bring you happiness?

Here are five everyday things that bring me happiness:

1. Spending time with God – Whether I’m praying, meditating on scripture, or taking communion, being in God’s presence centers me. It’s where I find my peace and strength.

2. Helping others in need – Through Lazarus Restoration Ministries, I find so much joy in serving the homeless and those struggling. Knowing I can be a vessel of hope makes my heart full.

3. Moments with my family – Just hearing my children or grandchildren’s voices, seeing their faces, or knowing they’re growing in their purpose, that brings me real happiness.

4. Encouraging and teaching others – I love when God uses me to speak life, whether it’s through writing, mentoring, or simply being available for someone who needs a word in season.

5. Worship and music – There’s nothing like the way worship lifts my spirit. As a Psalmist, I feel closest to who I am when I’m lost in a song that glorifies God.
