Seek Love.
Sometimes the world seems like a big, dark, scary place. We hyper focus on ourselves, our problems and fixing them. Maybe instead of looking only at our problems, ourselves, our situations and our circumstances - we take that energy and focus on friends, on family, on good, on helping others. When we widen our peripherals, we see the bigger picture - our issues are minuscule in the scheme of things. Seek out love and show it to someone else!
Seek Peace.
Finding peace within ourselves can be very difficult. I am still learning myself. But I can tell you, true peace comes from Jesus Christ. The bible tells us in Isaiah 9:6 that Jesus shall be called “Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace.” It is through Jesus Christ that we are given that peace - our money will not bring peace, neither will people, or things. Trust Jesus - He’ll give you peace no matter what your situation.
Seek Happiness.
Very little things in life bring us significant happiness or joy. Be sure to spend time with those who matter most while doing things that bring joy. Maybe that is gardening with your mom or nana, dancing with your siblings, fishing with your husband and daughter, or building something cool with your dad. Life is not always sunshine and rainbows and it never will be. With that being said, life is a gift and a beautiful thing. Find what makes you happy!
