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 games,
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!
