Can A Turkey Have a Happy Thanksgiving?

sad A friend once invited me to Thanksgiving. When I accepted her invitation she replied, “Great! At least now we’ll have a turkey!”

Feeling like a turkey? Getting basted by your boss? Carved by one you thought cared about you? Devoured by life?

Emotions are a choice. No one, or any circumstance can “make” you feel anything. You choose to feel a certain way. The only way, in life, I have learned to be happy, despite my circumstances, is to focus on the One, whose under His wings I find refuge.

“He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.” (Ps. 91:4 NIV) Now that’s a reason to choose happiness!
