Better Than Giggles

I love to laugh. I love to smile. And once I get the giggles, it's hard to stop. 

Because if you asked me, "What's your favorite pastime?" I would say, "Laughing."

So today was a beautiful day. It started with giggles and ended perfectly the same way.
It was cloudy and it rained, and the sun was hardly out, but let me tell you...'sunshine in your soul' is real. And that sunshine is so very contagious. 
Life has been crazy lately. I'm constantly exhausted and there is so much to do. My life has taken turns in directions that I never planned for myself, and guess what? 
I'm happier than I ever have been. 
Because the 'sunshine in my soul' is more than a few temporary rays of sunlight. It's the light and Spirit of Heavenly Father. It is the WHOLE sun. Inside me. It's lasting. Eternal. It is the very source of all light. 
I promise that God's light is so very real. It IS happiness. It's joy beyond comprehension. It's the inexplicable laughs that you can't contain and the love that overflows towards everyone and everything you see. It's the power to smile through tears and to dance when the storms are beating down harder than ever. 
It makes everything beautiful. 

So seek the Light. See it. Live in it. Live for it. Let it change you. Let it make you whole. And let it flow from you. 

I promise as you humbly allow His light into your life through repentance and obedience it will radiate from you, and it will be impossible not to smile. Trouble will not disappear. The clouds will still come. But when you carry that sunshine inside of you, nothing can darken it without you choosing it. It will change you and it will change others.

Heaven's light is real. It has power. It brings peace. It brings laughter and pure joy. It's the only true source of all things good. It heals and helps and brings strength and courage. 

It brings happiness that is better than anything. 
It's better than ice cream and pizza.
It's better than a million 'likes'.
Better than a walk on the beach, or a late night with a friend.
It's better than anything I've ever known.

It's even better than the giggles.(;
