Little Moments of Happiness

As I sit and have my cup of coffee with Jesus I was thinking about a daily reflection a friend sent to me yesterday. It said to find something each day that makes you happy. I believe sometimes it is those little things in which we experience happiness that open up our awareness to the presence of God. I set out each day with an agenda, calendar and a list of things I want to accomplish. But, often in the hurry to get everything done, I miss the little surprises, the little moments of happiness. It can be the taste of a good cup of coffee, the Bluejay that often visits me on my front porch, the new mother carrying her new baby with her three-year-old trailing behind barefoot in a princess dress that just makes me laugh. Life can be very demanding and even often times depressing but if we look hard enough we will see those things that make our heart full of joy and reminds that GOD IS WITH US! Today look for those moments of happiness and let them draw you to God! Have a blessed day!
