The First Step to Happiness_02 Matt. 5:3-10; James 4:6 Would you like to have God's strength in your life? The Bible says that the secret of spiritual power is to walk humbly before the Lord, to realize you have to depend on Him.The Lord has allowed you and I to be born in America, to live in a beautiful area such as here, to be with a great group of people who love me and our church and the family.First thing I do every day is sing a gospel song like, "Jesus Loves Me" because if I don't feel loved by God how can I show love to other people."God, I'm going to do this today. But if You don't want me to do this, You work it out. I know this is Your will today, but I'm just living one day at a time. I will not presume upon tomorrow because that would be arrogance."

The secret of happiness is humility. The secret of victory is total surrender to God The secret of independence is dependence upon God.
