What is happiness?  Or better yet…..what is your IDEA of what happiness is?  Is it just a state of mind?  Is our happiness determined by our circumstances?                          

A pastor said once, that when we are God’s child, happiness is what resides in our hearts and minds always, and that joy or sorrow can’t really touch it; that the circumstances where we find ourselves do NOT determine whether we are happy or not….we have God’s abiding happiness within us.

Filling our hearts with God’s love gives us permanent happiness, that allows us to be happy, or content, in whatever situations we find ourselves.

My brother, Bill, wrote about this very thing.  These are his thoughts:

Can we see just how God wants us to look to Him for our happiness?  No matter what happens, with God in our hearts, we can depend upon Him to give us the answers we seek to ALL our earthly problems.  He is true and faithful to His word.
