Proverbs 17:22 (MSG)
A cheerful disposition is good for your health; gloom and doom leave you bone-tired.
Do you remember the famous show – Smile, You’re on candid camera? Candid Camera is an American show where there were hidden cameras and scenes created using ordinary people or sometimes celebrities with the agenda of playing a practical joke . The individuals would be confronted with unusual situations, sometimes involving trick props. When the joke was revealed, victims would be told the show’s catchphrase, “Smile, you’re on Candid Camera.”
As I reflect on the show I thought about our lives and what if we viewed our circumstances as not a real reflection of our lives per se. What if we encountered something unimaginable and are able to ourselves, Smile, I’m on candid camera – as in , this is not really happening. Do you think we would respond differently and handle the situation a little better? Not to make light and to laugh it off (as we would say) but to respond in a way that takes away our anxiety and any other feeling that we may have? After all we do get anxious about situations we have no control over. I believe if we respond smile, I’m on candid camera, it would allow us to return to a” cheerful” disposition which is always good for our health! What say you?
Your Affirmation: I will smile and say I am on Candid Camera. I will keep up my cheerful disposition so that I can have good health.
Be Blessed on this AWESOME DAY in your Life!
