It is true that you can't give what you don't have, no matter how hard you try, you can only give what you have. You can't give happiness when you don't have happiness in your life, and you can't give bitterness when you don't have bitterness in your heart.
You can't motivate, inspire or encourage someone when you are always easily discouraged by little trials and challenges of life. Don't be like a person who always seem to find solutions to other people's problems but his/her own problems are staring back at him/her.
A bitter person can never exhibit the characteristics of a happy person, he/she will always spew out bitterness at any given opportunity, neither will a happy person will exhibits the characteristics of a bitter person, he/she will always have something gracious things to say even in the face of challenges.
Being a bitter or happy person is totally based on choice and how you tend to look at life in general. Personally, I've chosen to look at anything that has happened and that will happen to me through God's eye. I've faced challenges that almost made me to lost hope in life but whenever I recall this verse of the Bible, "All things work together for good to them that love God and are called according to His purpose", I'm always encouraged that I'm not alone, that God is always with me.
Let me honestly tell you that you can't be happy without God in your life. Nowadays, people based their happiness on the material things of this world while they neglect God. If the money, children, houses, businesses, jobs and so on of this world are being taken away from you, will you still be happy??? Be sincere with your answer!!!
God bless you!!!
