Your Happy Place


Many people have the wrong concept of God.  Some people think that God is all about judgement.  They think that judgement is God’s Happy Place.  They think that God is just waiting for someone to do something wrong, and then He sends a lightning bolt down from the sky to fry the offender.  That just Isn’t God at all.  God’s happy place is Love.  God delights in His children.  So, where is your happy place?  Do you like to exercise?  Do you like to run?  Scientists say that running releases endorphins.  I believe that endorphins are related to gluten, and I enjoy both when I am eating.  The only time that I run is to the dinner table when I’m called.  Hey, does the thought of a loving heavenly Father give you delight?  Do you think that God delights in giving His children good things?  Well, I do!  James said in James 1:17, “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.”  God is light, not darkness; God is good and God never changes.  Just let those facts sink in.  And then go to sleep, safe and sound at night.  Let the love of God and the goodness of God be your happy place because that is His happy place too.  Really.
