    Happy where you are born?

    Are you happy that God had you born in the country you are?
    It's funny cause ever since i thought of it when i was young; i love it overall; I dont know maybe if i was born in the US
    i might feel diffent and be glad i was born there i think.

    Still would be realy cool; Do you ever wonder if life would of been better for you if you was born and raised in a diffent country?

    Are there any verses about God speaking about this?

    Yup I am thankful with God for where I was born.

    There is a verse I guess is related:

    And seek the peace of the city whither I have caused you to be carried away captives, and pray unto the LORD for it: for in the peace thereof shall ye have peace. Jeremiah 29:7

    Well living in Africa..... pros and cons.... Yet I'll let the Light of Jesus shines here where He has trusted me to do so

    MANY South Africans have left the country because it just is not safe living here anymore.... BUT.... I trust in G_d alone

    Romans 12:19 Don't seek revenge ... give place to God's wrath. For it is written "Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord"

    Isa. 30:32
    And every blow of the rod of punishment, which the Lord will lay on him, will be with the music of tambourines and lyres; And in battles, brandishing weapons, He will fight them

    G_d was gracious He has shown favor

    What are you willing to die for? Now live for it!

    I was born in an England where by and large common decency was widespread and expected, children were raised properly and loved but not idolised, everyone knew their neighbours, life was simpler, we had proper seasonal weather instead of year-round drear, and a playground argument meant you were called names not stabbed or shot.

    I miss that country. She quietly died over the past few decades, and we didn't notice until it was too late.

    I was born and raised in Texas, the greatest country in the world. Of course I'm happy!
    We long to be known and we fear it like nothing else.
    Most people live with subtle dread that one day,
    they will be discovered for who they really are,
    and the world will be appalled.

    "I love a sunburned country, a land of sweeping plains, of ragged mountain ranges of droughts and flooding rains. I love her far horizons, I love her jewelled seas, her beauty and her terror, the wide brown land for me." by Doreatha McKeller. A poem about my wonderful country....AUSTRALIA.

    There is no other country in the world I would rather have been born in, or would want to live in.

    God made the world, but He lives in Australia.

    I dunno. I love the U.S. Part of me wants to be somewhere else though.

    It's extremely Happy. I was born in Saint Luke's Hospital in San Francisco, CA.
    I can't imagine a happier place. (Excluding Disneyland of course)

    I was borne in South Africa. For me it doesnt really matter where I was borne, because I have learnd in this past couple of weeks, that God will and can send me anywhere, so for me I am not really bothered about where I was borne. He gave me a purpose, and I suppose that is all that matter for me at this stage.
