Start Living Your Godly, Happiness-Filled Life Today!

"Live simply. Love generously. Speak truthfully. Pray daily. Leave everything else to God." Unknown

 I absolutely love how simple this quote is. It is really the outline that we need to follow to live a happiness-filled, blessing-filled, Godly life, and we just have to take the steps! We just have to put in the effort to do the things that is says in this quote, we need to get over any fears or hesitations that we may have about any of them and know that, by taking these steps, we are getting closer and closer to the life that God has us to live.
 Now, the first step listed here says to live simply. Don't make things more complicated than they have to be. So many times I think that we over think situations and we try to work as hard as we can to get it all figured out, but see, if we wouldn't overthink the situation, if we would get in a mindset of simplicity and know that we don't have to work it all out, that is the first step to living your Godly life.
 Now, the next step tells us to love generously. Don't go around saying that you will love this person if they do this or stop doing that, don't say that they are just so impossible to love that you can't help but only love them a little. No. But we need to love generously. We need to love them unconditionally with all that we have, just as God has done for us.
 Speak truthfully. Don't lie. Don't deceive others, and speak the words of God unto people and your situations in your life. Speak the truth, not only to others, but to yourself. Don't let yourself be overcome by the lies of this world, but instead, rest in the truth that you have in God.
 Pray daily. Make sure that you are taking time out of each and every day to stop and have a conversation with God, whether that be in your car on the way to work or in your room having some quiet time. Just make sure that you are having conversations just between you and Him. A conversation that doesn't only involve talking, but listening as well.
 Lastly, this quote tells us to leave the rest with God. After you take these steps and after you begin to do these things daily, that my friend, is when God is going to take the rest in His hands. He is going to take your life and lead you to the future that He has for you, granting you with miracles and blessings along the way.
 So today, make the decision to start following these steps, and watch your life change for the better as you do.
