Let’s try to be happy ...

What is the conduct of a baby? We see him smiling and he also likes it when we smile. He wants to continue getting attention. Don’t expect it, we will not see a baby with a wrinkled forehead, when he cries, because he is hungry, he expects to be attended to.

As time passes and the baby grows, the story changes, that smile is gone.

The carnal nature begins to manifest, but if we instruct the child in the right way, under Biblical principles, there is hope that he will incline in being a happy person.

He needs to be surrounded by positive people, and if this does not happen, his conduct will be of much anger all the time.

Allow me to share some things so your life will be happy, and even though God is the best promoter of happiness, there are many things we can do to be happy. I hope this will help you:

1. Know how to choose your friends. Not too long ago someone told me: I like to hang around younger people so I can look younger. I would say I like to hang around with people that are very happy, so I will not look so serious.

2. Let your relationship with God be dynamic, not religious, and do not take sin as if it had no solution. Sin is not a terminal illness.

3. There is a Mexican expression, that is very popular and I really like it. “IT CAN BE DONE”. God bless you.
