One of the most prominent attributes of being human is wanting to feel something. We write stories, draw images and create music all in the pursuit of invoking feelings. These things can inspire us to be brave, happy, strong, and peaceful. However, they can also inspire feelings like hate, anger, depression, and jealousy. Now I know you’re probably wondering how can ensure that I’m being influenced in the right way? The answer to that question is simply that God has a plan. God gave us three main steps to follow for a happy healthy life. 1st step: pray to him about everything. 2nd step: read your Bible and learn the word. 3rd and final Gather with other people of faith to teach and support each other. If we follow these easy steps we will always move in the right direction toward a happy and prosperous life. Psalms 143:10 NIV “Teach me to do your will, for you are my God; may your good Spirit lead me on level ground.”
