...What puts a smile on your face?

As im sitting here waiting for my flight back Seattle in my home state where I was born. (California), I stop & think about what made me smile while I was here. I can think of several moments in which I had a smile on my face. One of them was seeing my brother Jon whom I hadn't seen in 14 months. One of the most memorable moments was when I surprised my mom! (who nearly almost had a heart attack in seeing me, Lol). The expression on her face was priceless & unforgettable. Along with many more priceless moments I had while I was on vacation, one of the things I was reminded of was God's merciful love over my life & my family's.
A passage I came across & reminded me of Gods love over my life was found in Galatians 1:15 NIV

"But when God, who set me apart from my mother's womb and called me by his grace, was pleased"

This made me realize about so many plans God has already had over me set apart since before I was born. Set me apart from my mother's womb! & to top it off called me by grace!!! I don't know about you but that puts a huge smile on my face! :)
See many people may over look at certain situations in which God smiles down at us & is pleased. If I can do ONE thing in life right it would be to please my heavenly father & put a smile on His face.
2 Corinthians 5:9 NIV

So we make it our goal to please him, whether we are at home in the body or away from it.

This is what gets to me, to know that no matter I am to always please God. Because by doing so I put a smile on His face. More then anything in life I want to have God look down on me & be pleased & smile at me. We're humans & as humans we make some crazy decisions in which God may be like c'mon man! Lol! But never the less He loves us unconditionaly.
So as I wrap this up & head back home, think about what makes you smile? What puts a smile on your face? & what ever it may be be reminded how YOU put a smile on your heavenly father's face. :)
This is my desire! ...so smile on my friends! :)
