Happiness and a Merry Heart

A couple of my favorites from Proverbs are Ch 17:22 it says, "A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones." Proverbs 16:20 says, "He that handleth a matter wisely shall find good: and whoso trusteth in the Lord, happy is he." Being happy with a merry heart sounds wonderful and it proves to be so when we experience it. Some Christians don't appear to have a merry heart and happiness. My wife and I met a Christian lady many years ago who was annoyed because our hearts were merry and we were happy. She told us, "Just wait, you won't be so happy once the devil gets after you." He has been after us for years and we still have God's grace to experience merry hearts and happiness. Hopefully we all are!
