If you are going to experience happiness consistently, where do you start?

More security through money? A stable marriage? Sex? Power? A “do-over” in life?

The Lord starts with RELATIONSHIPS as the first place to experience happiness.

If our relationships are off center, just like the wheel to a car, it makes everything warped and can beat you to death on the road called "LIFE."

But HOW?
How do we find, craft or create happy relationships?

Here are four simple principles from Philippians that are simple to understand, but incredibly hard to apply. These four uncomplicated truths are easy to understand, and most people know them, but they are not doing them.

If we will do these four relational habits, our relationships will be transformed and we will be happy!

“I thank my God upon every remembrance of you,” (Philippians 1:3, NKJV)

The first thing we must do is be GRATEFUL for the people in my life!

Studies prove that the more grateful you are, the happier you will be! If you are grumpy, you will not be happy.

Keep in mind that Paul (the author of the happiest book in the Bible, Philippians) had been beaten wrongfully and put in prison in Philippi. The people he was writing this letter to did not immediately step up to help him. In fact, the jailer who beat him and bound him was now in the church Paul was writing to (see Acts 16).

  • Could you write to someone who had mistreated you and say,
    “I thank my God every time I remember you”?
    For who are you grateful in your life?
    Did you ever told them?

Rejoicing, On the Victory Side!
