What Made You Happy Today?

Psalm 118:24
This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.

My friend, Robin, and I go back to 1977. We met in our junior year in high school when my family moved from Waukegan, Illinois, to a small rural town in Indiana. A few years ago we reconnected and started right where we left off, all those years ago. It’s been a sweet rekindling of friendship.

Yesterday, we spoke on the phone just briefly. Then out of the blue, she sent me this text:

Things that made me happy today…

Followed by these pictures:

I wonder if we would be filled with more gratitude, and sleep better, if we spent a few minutes every night reflecting on what made us happy during our day instead of all the things that went wrong.

Psalm 17:22 A joyful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones.

These things made me happy today:

1) Spending time with my son, Ezekiel, at an antique store.

2) Finding the most perfect guitar picture for my hippie corner. I love a good find.

3) I received texts and pictures from my son, Jet, who is currently in Africa.

4) The weather this Memorial weekend has been absolutely perfect. I mean perfect!

5) And after receiving another update, I know God is continuing to answer prayer on behalf of my friend. ♥️

Psalm 144:15
Blessed are the people to whom such blessings fall! Blessed are the people whose God is the Lord!

So tonight after you’ve cleaned up from today’s activities and are comfy in bed, what will you reflect upon? What brought happiness to your day?

I love when a friend inspires a post. Thank you, Robin. ♥️
