What makes you smile?

"Why are you down in the dumps, dear soul? Why are you crying the blues? Fix my eyes on God-- soon I'll be praising again. He puts a smile on my face. He's my God." -Psalm 42:5 (MSG)


It's sometimes so easy to get caught up in the 'Blues'. How funny it is that our moods change so quickly. This afternoon I was reminded of some of the things in life that make me smile...just to name a few...

-surprise phone calls from those I love

-ice cream with bananas and chocolate

-seeing the mountains covered in snow

-the music of a waterfall

-dancing under the stars

-the smell of Christmas trees

-white hot chocolate

-running through a river

-when someone special says 'I love you'

-flying a kite

-walking through the trees

-being barefoot

-every Monday to Friday at 4:00pm

-getting a RSVP back for my wedding

-having worship music blast when I turn on my car

-warm sunshine

-daydreaming

-thinking of all the many blessings that I receive everyday. Often it's just the little things that make a day bright. What made you smile today??
