CHOOSE TO BE JOYFUL

Read in your own language

May 12, 2023

Scriptural Text:
Proverbs 15:30 (NKJV)
“The light of the eyes rejoiceth the heart: and a good report maketh the bones fat.”

 

 


A cheerful countenance can have a powerful impact on those around us. A smile, for instance, can lift the spirits of others and make them feel more positive. This is especially important when the people we meet may be struggling with stress, anxiety, or depression. A cheerful countenance can indeed offer hope and encouragement to others.

Just as our opening text today spells out, a cheerful countenance can also have positive effects on our own mental and emotional well-being; it rejoices the heart! When we choose to be happy and show it through our facial expressions and body language, it can lift our own mood and help us feel more positive, thereby enhancing productivity and lifting our overall sense of well-being.

However, keeping a cheerful countenance does not mean we should ignore or deny our emotions. Sometimes, we will have difficult days, but even in the midst of the challenges, we can choose to be upbeat by focusing on the good, looking for reasons to be thankful, as we trust in God’s goodness and faithfulness.

Therefore, whether you are at your work desk today, in transit or relating with colleagues, customers or family members, strive to have a cheerful countenance, not just for the benefit of others, but also for your own well-being. Cultivate that sense of joy that comes from your fellowship with God, and let that joy shine through your face as you interact with others throughout the day.
