..One day....


One day, one friend asked another,
"How is it that you are always so happy?
You have so much energy,
and you never seem to get down."

With her eyes smiling, she said, "I know the Secret!"
"What secret is that?"
To which she replied, "I'll tell you all about it,
but you have to promise to share the Secret with others."

"The Secret is this:
I have learned there is little I can do in my life that will make me truly happy.
I must depend on God to make me happy and to meet my needs.
Whenaneed arises in my life, I have to trust God to supply according to HISriches.I have learned most of the time I don't need half of what I thinkI do.
He has never let me down. Since I learned that 'Secret', I am happy."

The questioner's first thought was,
"That'stoosimple!" But upon reflecting over her own life she recalled how she thoughtabigger house would make her happy, but it didn't! She thought a betterpayingjob would make her happy, but it hadn't. When did she realize hergreatesthappiness? Sitting on the floor with her grandchildren, playinggames, eatingpizza or reading a story, a simple gift from God.

Now you know it too!
We can't depend on people to make us happy.
Only GOD in His infinite wisdom can do that.
Trust HIM! And now I pass the Secret on to you! So once you get it, what will you do?

YOU have to tell someone the Secret, too!
That GOD in His wisdom will take care of YOU!
