A "happy heart" is at peace, content and yielded to God's best.
With such a happy heart from the inside out, we can respond
to surprising circumstances with a genuine smile.
(Elisa Morgan-Our Daily Bread)

A happy heart makes the face cheerful, but heartache crushes the
spirit. Proverbs 15:13

We have no control of the circumstances of our lives but we can
control  how we respond to them. We can choose to be happy, in spite
of the circumstances or we can choose to be miserable and make
everyone around us miserable... so let us choose the former!

choose to save us from very circumstance in life, but He
has certainly promised to save us in the next life.
