Does it take more muscles to smile or frown? I recently read that scientists aren’t actually sure. But one thing is for sure: It takes a lot more energy to frown. It’ll sap our strength to always allow ourselves to stay upset or sad.
Sometimes we just gotta find something to smile about.
Psalms 4:6-7 says, “There be many that say, Who will shew us any good? LORD, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us. 7 Thou hast put gladness in my heart, more than in the time that their corn and their wine increased.”
If we look for something to frown about, we’ll find it.
But if we look for something to smile about, we can find that as well. With God it’s always possible to look on the bright side.
