The smile of God is the goal of your life.

Since, you consider that pleasing God is the source of your life, your greatest task is reveal how to do it. The Bible says, "Figure out what will please Christ, and then do it." Fortunately, the Bible gives us a clear example of a life that gives pleasure to God. The man's name was Noah.

In Noah's day, the entire world had become morally bankrupt. Everyone lived for their own pleasure, not God's. God couldn't find anyone on earth interested in pleasing Him, so He was grieved and regretted making man. God became so disgusted with the human race that He considered wiping out. But there was one man who made God smile. The Bible says, "Noah was a pleasure to the Lord."

God said, "This guy brings me pleasure. He makes me smile. I'll start over with His family." Because Noah brought pleasure to God, you and I are alive today. From His life we learn the five acts of worship that make God smile.

1. God smiles when we love Him supremely.
2. God smiles when we obey Him wholeheartedly.
3. God smiles when we praise and thank Him continually.
4. God smiles when we use our abilities.
5. God smiles when we trust Him completely.

God is looking for people like Noah in the twenty-first century---people willing to live for the pleasure of God. The Bible says, "The Lord looks down from heaven on all mankind to see if there are any who are wise, who want to please God."

Will you make pleasing God the goal of your life? There's nothing that God won't do for the person totally absorbed with this goal.

Have a great day ahead everyone!
