You Can Have It!A message from Jesus
Nothing in your lifeno physicalcircumstance or
conditionshouldhave the power to steal away your
joy, happiness, and contentment.You have the power to decide
howyou think, how you feel, and whatyour outlook on life is. You
alsohave My promises in the Bible thatyou can claim for the joy,
hope, andcontentment that you desire.

I want you to believe in My love for you; to believethat you can
be content, happy, and have a lifeflled with joy as you trust in Me
and claim My
promises. When youre in the middle of a veryunhappy situation,
you might think that this
is impossible to do, but it's not. Many
people have faced great hardships,handicaps, and diculties, yet
they
opened their lives to love and joy.They were cheerful and
happy
despite the things that lifehad brought their way. They
were overcomers! But theywould have never lifteda fnger, never
changed
anything, never goneanywhere, never beenanyone, if they
hadallowed their usefulnessto be swallowed up bynegativity and
discontent.
You may not think thatyou have a winningpersonality or a
treasure
chest full of personaltalents, but no matter what
you think about yourself,praise Me anyway and let
Me help you to keep away anynegative and debilitating
feelings.

You can be content, positive, and joyful! It is
within your right as My child to claim all thesethings because
My Word has promised it!Psalm 16:11 says, You make known to me
thepath of life; in your presence there is fullnessof joy; at your
right hand are pleasuresforevermore (ESV).
