What does it take in your life to be happy?

Pro 3:13 Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding.

Did you ever notice that many times it’s the people with lots of money that are very unhappy within their lives? Some of these people have all that they could possibly want, or so they think.

Inside, they are really hurting, because they just don’t have the joy that they would like to have, one of the reason for this is they have held their peace and comfort in material things.

Some of these folks that have had all their heart could wish for have used drugs, alcohol, and many other vices to try and gain some sort of joy or even momentary peace.

How many have decided that life was just not worth living and then they took their own lives. I have known lots of folks that could have anything they wanted to have, in terms of material things, but deep inside, they were miserable and had many bad days that brought them no comfort.

Many of these people will even take their own lives and leave their misery to their families; they can’t really enjoy what someone left behind for them because of their trail of sorrows.

On the other hand, I have watched people that had very little, they had an undeniable joy and peace and a desire to enjoy their lives and also their families. These people are full of hope and happiness and they just enjoy life. They have a very genuine level of value that means so much to them.

My prayer is that I never chase after things that are empty and void of God, things that are hollow and have no value. I’m glad for the knowledge that I have and I know where the real peace is.

Our hope needs to be in Jesus, because it’s only in him that we can know genuine peace and only he can satisfy your soul.

Blessings to you my friend,

Evangelist: Frank Mc Gee ~
