I Think Myself Happy: Your Journey to Smiling God’s Way is a faith-centered devotional by Lillian B. Washington that helps readers cultivate enduring joy by renewing their thinking and deepening their connection with God. Inspired by the Apostle Paul’s declaration, “I think myself happy,” the book presents happiness as an intentional, spiritually grounded way of living rather than a temporary response to favorable circumstances. Through Scripture, relatable stories, practical actions, and guided reflections, readers learn to apply this perspective amid everyday challenges. The journey addresses mental clarity and healthy thinking, personal fulfillment, health and wellness, relationships, community, and spiritual growth. Written in an accessible, encouraging voice, the book provides individuals and groups—including faith communities, book clubs, veterans, caregivers, families, and adults navigating change—with a practical framework for reflection, conversation, and personal growth.
 
By the end of the devotional, readers will have repeatable practice for recognizing unhelpful thought patterns, reframing challenges through Scripture, and choosing actions that support joy, connection, and spiritual growth.
