Be Happy

 

Be happy in your faith at all times.

1 Thessalonians 5:16 

At the end of the first letter to the Christians at Thessalonica, Paul  lists his hopes and dreams for the Thessalonian church members.

Live together in peace.  Love the unruly.  Encourage the timid.  Help the weak.  Be very patient with all men.  Do not repay a bad turn with a bad turn.  Good should always be your objective.  Be happy in your faith at all times.  Never stop praying.  Be thankful whatever the circumstance.  Use your judgment.  Hold on to whatever is good.  Steer clear of evil in any form.

And then Paul promises, to the Thessalonians and to us:  ”He who calls you is utterly faithful, and He will finish what He has set out to do."

If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands,

If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands.

If you're happy and you know it then your life will surely show it,

If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands.
