Happy place?

So where is your HAPPY place? Where do you find yourself at peace and the most content? Is there a place that you like to find 'refuge' in - to flee back too in order to connect with God and yourself?
There are a few places that I love going to for this purpose, but the best is the BEACH. Let me walk on the beach or just sit and watch the waves and I am happy. The stress of life evaporates quickly when I smell the sea and hear the ocean.

So where is your happy place?

Coming back to our Psalm for the week, we see that David doesn't need a place to go to, but rather desires to be in the presence of God - that is his place of contentment. When David spent time with the Lord he felt at peace and restored.

Psalm 46:1 -  God is our protection and our strength.
    He always helps in times of trouble.

Happy place

Where is your happy place?

If you don't know what I am getting at, let me ask it like this:

Where is the place where you feel most content and fulfilled? 

Where is the place where you can breath deeply from the peace of life? 

Where is the place where you feel at HOME?"

I feel that I am blessed to have a few places that I can call my happy place, but the one place where I feel that God speaks clearly to me is at Africa Enterprise in Pietermaritzburg. I go there when I can to retreat and pray. There is just something about that beautiful venue that makes my heart glad and my spirit soar.Of course the beach and the mountains are not far off - I always sense the greatness of God in the tranquility of nature.

Psalm 68:3 - But may the righteous be glad and rejoice before God; may they be happy and joyful.

Perhaps some of us need to visit our happy place soon, so that we can reconnect with our souls?

  
Ecclesiastes 2:26 - To the person who pleases him, God gives wisdom, knowledge and happiness.

"It is not how much we have, but how much we enjoy, that makes happiness." -Charles Spurgeon
