Put a Smile on.

2 Corinthians 8:2
2 They are being tested by many troubles, and they are very poor. But they are also filled with abundant joy, which has overflowed in rich generosity.

Do you have anything near you that you bought a long time ago? Look at it now. Do you look at it differently? I mean, you're probably not as excited about it now as you were when you purchased it. The excitement just wears away. We have let downs too. For example, whenever I go on vacation I'm excited, but then before long I'm back and it's like "man I wish i could hold onto that excitement forever."

The same type of thing can also happen as we go through the hussle and bussle of our daily activities. Certain encounters and circumstances turn that smile into a frown. These exterior things can make us frustrated. We forget everything that should make us appreciative.

With the help of God, he can help you see [this and that] the way Jesus would. Immediately, God gets our attention by showing us an eternal mindset. Instead of doing a nasty, worldy action, just PRAY! There's always a moral to every situation that we face.

So, put a smile on (your face and heart) and leave it there all the time!
