Giving gifts

Happiness is...

Giving gifts. Sure, I stress for a few days about what to get someone. But after a little thoughtful shopping and some nice crisp wrapping paper, all that awaits is their receiving of my present, and the joy that's on their face when they open it and find something that spoke to me about them.

I love presents. They're a little token of personal affection, and they are way better than me just splurging on an impulsive desire. A simple reminder of love, hope, and family. Gifts. Merry Christmas!

God bless us, every one.

Galatians

Happiness is...

The fruits of the spirit.

Love.
Joy.
Peace.
Patience.
Kindness.
Goodness.
Faithfulness.
Gentleness.
Self-control.

This evening when I asked for prayer it was for a healing of my attitude. A friend prayed the fruits of the spirit upon me, and for some reason they just spoke volumes. I am making it a personal goal to practice them.

Starting today.
More to come.
