Ramena's Rebirth

God did not create us to reach one level and stop. When we think, “Oh God, thank You, I’ve accomplished my dreams,” God says, “I appreciate your thanks, but I’m not finished with you. It’s too small a thing for you to stay there. I’ve got something bigger.” In our minds, it could be huge. Just got the promotion. Just moved into the Compaq Center. Just met the person of my dreams. God did more than I could ask or think. The whole time, God’s in the heavens saying, “You haven’t seen anything yet. I’m glad you’re happy, but that’s a small thing.”

God’s idea of big is much different than our idea of big. In scripture, David not only ended up serving the king, he became the king. He thought, “God, wow, You’ve amazed me with Your goodness.” God said, “Still, it’s too small a thing, David. I’m going to put one of your descendants on the throne for the next 1,000 generations.

People today are not likely to take responsibility for themselves. That is the cause of unhappiness. You don’t feel good, so you blame it on every single person, event or thing you can possibly blame it on - except your own self of course. If you want to be happy, be. People tend to disagree with this statement with long list of excuses for their unhappiness.

If you really wanted to be happy, you would be. That is the real truth. The only thing standing between you and your happiness is yourself.

We need to stop making excuses for our misery and start building up our happiness.

I spent a large part of last year in this state - being miserable and blaming everything for it. I will tell you a secret: it will not get you anywhere.

You can waste all your energy complaining and searching for something to blame all the time, but you are just wasting all that precious energy on building your misery even more. Read more»
