I’ll be Happy When | A Devotional

“Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom and as you sing psalms hymns and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God.” Colossians 3:16

It is easy to believe the lie that when we get to our ideal weight or body type than we will finally be happy or will be able to fulfill what God has in store for us. We think if we only had more money, better abs, more friends, or vacations that we would be truly satisfied and be able to live happy lives. This is the lie the devil wants us to believe so we continue to stay distracted from truly connecting with God and living lives fully devoted to Him.

It is so important to believe now that you a child of the King! That today is the day of change! It is a decision to find joy and happiness in our circumstances.

While you are in process with your eating and completing your exercise be and do who you feel like you were created to be and to do! Do not wait until things are “perfect” to find joy and live out your calling. It starts today! Be now who you are waiting for yourself to become!

Dear Father thank you for giving me now! I pray that I will take my life back today and live in the fullness of who you have called me to be!  Thank you father, in you I find true joy and fulfillment. Amen.
