We all want to be happy, but are we giving God a chance to help us find the joy that He has in store for us? The other day I walked down to the beach, early in the morning. Two ladies passed me, going in the opposite direction. I heard one of the ladies, who had a camera in her hand, say to the other that the morning was too cloudy so they wouldn’t be able to get any good pictures. It was not much later that morning when this beautiful scene opened up along the shore. I was very happy to experience this gift from God. I wonder how ofter God has such gifts for us that we do not put ourselves in the proper position to receive.
