My secret for success...

Many people have asked me why is it I am so happy all the time, even through the most stressful days, why I manage to put a smile on my face and be cheerful.  Well, here is my long lost secret! Are you ready??  It's putting my full trust in God! Here is an email I received from my dear friend, Donella.

Thanks Donella for sharing this email with me!

The Secret

One day, one friend asked another,

'How is it that you are
always  so happy?

You have so much energy, and you never seem to get down.'

With her eyes smiling, she said, 'I know the Secret!'

'What secret is that?'

To which she replied, 'I'll tell you all about it,

but you have to promise to share


> the Secret with others.' '

The Secret is this: I have learned there is little 

 I can do in my life that will make me truly happy.

I must depend on God to   make me happy and to meet my needs.

When a need arises in my life, I have


to  trust God to supply according to HIS riches.

I have learned most of the time  I don't need half of what I think I do.

He has never let me down. Since I learned that 'Secret', I am happy.'

The questioner's first thought was,  'That's too simple!'

But upon reflecting over her own life she recalled how   

she thought a bigger house would make her happy, but it didn't!

She thought   a better paying job would make her happy, but it hadn't.

When did she realize her greatest happiness?

Sitting on the floor with her grandchildren,  playing , eating pizza or

reading a story, a simple gift from God.

 Now you  know it too!

We can't depend on people to make us happy.

 Only GOD in His infinite wisdom can do that.

Trust HIM!

And now I pass the Secret on to you!

 So once you get it, what will you do?

 YOU have to tell someone the Secret, too!

That GOD in His wisdom will take care of YOU! But it's not really a  secret...

We just have to believe it and do it... Really trust God!

Just  Pass It On
