I'm spending the week 'discipling' at the feet of the Reverend Dr. Kennon Callahan. We're talking about happiness--at least so far that's what we've been looking at--from a whole kaleidoscope of views. Happiness. It's an interesting concept.
Are YOU happy? Why, or why not? Do you expect happiness to be constant or momentary? Fleeting or eternal? Perhaps you feel that you don't deserve happiness--or you do deserve happiness.
We are all children of God. God intends us to live in God's love and grace. What that means is that we might not always be happy; we might not always live in the midst of happiness. But, we DO always live in God's love, and whether the time is happy or not, we are not alone in the midst of what we face. And in the midst of happy or sad times; in the midst of tragedy and celebration, God is present with us.
Happiness? For sure. What more could we ask?
Thank goodness we can turn to God for his love. This brings me peace which leads to contentment and happiness.
