The Secret

The  Secret          The  Secret One  day, one friend asked another, 'How  is it that you are always so happy? You have so much  energy, and you never seem to get down.' With  her eyes smiling, she said, 'I  know the Secret!' 'What secret is that?' To which she  replied, 'I'll tell you all about it, but you have to  promise to share the Secret with others.' 'The  Secret is this: I  have learned there is little I can do in my life that will make  me truly happy. I must depend on God to make me happy  and to meet my needs. When a need arises in my life, I  have to trust God to supply according to HIS riches. I  have learned most of the time I don't need half of what I think I  do. He has never let me down.. Since I learned that  'Secret', I am happy.' The  questioner's first thought was, 'That's  too simple!' But upon reflecting over her own life she  recalled how she thought a bigger house would make her happy, but  it didn't! She thought a better paying job would make  her happy, but it hadn't. When did she realize her greatest  happiness? Sitting on the floor with her  grandchildren, playing games, eating pizza or reading a  story, a simple gift from God. Now  you know it too! We  can't depend on people to make us happy. Only GOD in His infinite  wisdom can do that. Trust HIM! And now I pass the Secret  on to you! So once you get it, what will you do? YOU  have to tell someone the Secret, too! That  GOD in His wisdom will take care of YOU! But it's not really a  secret... We just have to believe it and do it... Really  trust God! Just  Pass It On!  Do  your best; let God do the rest.Today  I pray your troubles be less,May your blessings be more, and  May nothing but happinesscome through your  door!!

That is the secret as St Paul says I can be content with little or with abundance for all is from God as He wants me to have.
Contentment and appreciating the gifts of God, so simple, why do I make it so hard?
