Trust in God:

Jesus knows us and our sorrows perfectly. He lived and died for us so that we can have the hope of also overcoming the world and returning to lived with him again. Trusting God will help us wait on him when he delays or is silent regarding our prayers or the fulfillment of his promise. If he delays, it is for a good reason. His action are founded on His wisdom and loved. But for us to trust in him, we ought to spend time in prayer, acknowledging who He is, and with that, the crown will be giving to us.

Focus on Jesus Christ:

Jesus Christ must remain our focus. When Jesus remains pur focus, several things happen. Firstly, when Jesus remains our focus, our heart is filled with perfect peace and also we will experience true unity with fellow believers. When the focus of our lives is on God's plan of salvation, and Jesus Christ and His Gospel, we can feel joy regardless of what is happening or not happening in our life. Jesus is the source of all joy. And as Christians, we have His salvation, and we are formed to give Christ the Glory. We are made to praise Him out of our gratitude and for his holiness.

Happy people tend to be more optimistic, and optimistic people tend to be happier. One of the key ideas of increasing happiness in our lives is to increase or boost our optimism.
