The happiness of your life, it’s true,
Does not depend on what you do—
Nor riches gained or mountains climbed,
But on the thoughts that shape your mind.
A gentle soul with little gold
May live more joy than kings of old,
For peace is born where wisdom grows,
And calm within the spirit flows.
Arrange your thoughts like rays of sun,
With gratitude when day is done.
Let kindness be the voice you hear,
And hope the compass drawing near.
Each thought’s a seed, and if well sown,
It blooms with joy you call your own.
So guard your mind, let goodness stay—
And happiness will light your way.
For His Honor and Glory
MarkWaldrop
Php 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
The Happiness of Your Life
